Anyone else notice cargo deflector doesn't work? [Question]

I don't remember when this started, it was a while back but the cargo scan deflector no longer deflects. Ever. Not even once. It always puts up the message "deflection failed". Worse, it used to be that you could pulse away from the hostiles but now they'll just pull you out of pulse and force you to fight or run away slowly.

Space battles are largely a waste of time given the trivial rewards that you get, and the complete lack of challenge. Pirates seem to think that flying in curly-cues is an effective defense. It's more like a boxer who constantly dances away from his opponent, never taking a real swing and basically just forcing the opponent to chase him around the ring before knocking him out.

So I prefer not to waste time on those, but the game now seems to try to force a fight by breaking the cargo scan deflector. It now seems like wasting a tech slot on something that doesn't work.

Noob Storage question [Question]

I am super new to this game... 20 hours in is all! And I am in love. I was wondering how storage worked. I just got a freighter and see it has storage as well. I also built a storage container at my first base. Are these storages linked? or if I left something in storage at my base, do I need to go there to get it. I am having trouble with all the storage options( including my starship), and have soo much stuff all the time that I have no room for things.

Tips?

Space Anomaly Messes with my game performance [Discussion]

My pc is shit: No need to point it out in the comments

But my point is: I run NMS at solid 40, 50fps, but once I enter the Anomaly, my fps rate drops to 20, 15fps, leaving my game unplayable and forcing me to close and reopen the game.

I truly just want to know what causes this issue and why the Anomaly drops my performance at that level

Had a truly beautiful moment near the end of the story [Screenshot]

SPOILERS for anyone who may not know the main story of the game.

I’ve only recently started truly playing this game despite having it for a few years and I’ve been playing through the main story and finding it much more enjoyable than I thought I would. This moment specifically right after the atlas reveals it has 16 minutes before it shuts down and subsequently ends everything in this universe felt so beautiful completely on accident. This planet I was put on after that was so lush and pristine and even has no harmful weather conditions. It truly felt like the atlas had tried its best to spare me and send me to a nice place to live out whatever was left of my life in comfort. Fun coincidences like that make this game feel so impactful.

Scanner bugged? [Question]

So I’ve been wrecking my brain all day trying to find a runaway mold deposit and I have been to probably 15 planets and have yet to see one three star resource on any of them. Then just now as I’m standing on the back of my Corvette scanning, I watched this massive pile of data stones pass underneath me with absolutely no icon on the scanner. In fact, it didn’t show up until I jumped out of the Corvette and ran up to it.

Xbox S, I’m sure it’s something to do with the update.

End of Purge, start of Beginnings [Question]

I finished The Purge (walked through the final portal) and confronted The Atlas to reset the sim. I chose to reset several times. Was presented with the four colored galaxies. Thought I’d have a chance to look at all of the them but nope, clicked the red and “reset” which automatically sent me to a nasty radioactive hell hole. Found my ship, fixed what I could, flew to space station to buy other parts to fix ship/suit/multitool. Discovered I’m in the Calypso galaxy. Read somewhere to make a base in the new galaxy before returning to Euclid, but even after doing that, once I teleported to my freighter the new galaxy options were gone (also the freighter I teleported to was a bizarrely small portion of the ship only, only three rooms in the habitable area including my teleport ring.

What the hell am I doing wrong here? I read elsewhere that this bit is all scripted and things should go back to “normal” soon but nothing. Even quitting and reloading an old save, I’m back in Calypso but I have no idea what to do next. I just wanna go to purple star systems goddamn

#

Which mechanic would you most like to see in the game? [Discussion]

I was seeing that there was no way to put a normal ship inside a corvette, like that ship parking lot. I wanted to be able to exit the corvette with a normal ship while flying, like in Star Wars. You can even land on the corvettes that are around the cargo ship, so it would be taking advantage of a mechanic that "already exists".

The cargo ship battle would also be incredible, bringing something more dynamic and not those repetitive events. I don't know, a group of sentry patrol spotted your ship and a confrontation began, and you could modify the cargo ships' defense systems.

Question regarding co op [Question]

My friend and I are planning to start no man’s sky co op together, neither of us have played it before and wondered if it’s recommended (or even possible) to play the story together or go purely sandbox/creative mode?

Just a small settlement [Screenshot]

Since the Remnant update I decided to play in a new way, in which I build a small settlement in whenever I first land in a planet and then do all my exploring while grounded using the exocrafts. If I decided to explore a new distant area I go into space, drop in a new place and make a new settlement. My main rules are: can't call my ship outside of the settlement's landing pad, spaceship is exclusive for space travel. Of course I can't just drop new settlements every time I stray too far, I can't only make new ones by dropping from space, and I can only go into space by returning to a settlement and then launching on the spaceship. Right now I'm focused on impriving it by moving to a Corvette, since those arrived recently on the Switch I didn't had the chance to build one, so I can have a proper mobile base to support the settlement.

Do all Sentinel Interceptors that are upgraded from C/B/A to S get the same core stats, and only natural S class has a chance to roll higher? [Question]

I found a Sentinel ship I like and spent some time yesterday flying around and collecting every one I could find, and then upgrading them to S class to see if the upgraded version was any good. They all got different SC slot layouts, but every one had the same Core stats as S-class. I expected to see more of a range. Or can only natural S-class ships roll different stats in the S range?

Strange widescreen aberrations [Question]

I've been playing NMS for some time on a Samsung widescreen monitor 5120x1440 and the image at the top center shows a strange artifact, and it reminds me of how the old shadow mask monitor had to have convergence adjustment to align the electron beams.

Here's a close up showing what I mean.

Has any one experienced this? If so is there a solution.

I haven't had this occur on any other games I've played.

Discovering an extinct species + last planetary fauna impossible to find? [Bug]

This is the second time this has happened. I can find the other flying fauna in abundance even if it's listed as uncommon/rare/diurnal/whatever, but the "common/flying/always active" takes forever to find. It isn't until I climb to the highest peak that I can find that I sometimes am able to find it, only for it to not count towards the discoveries at all and instead be listed as an extinct species. It doesn't let me claim the nanite bonus, and reloading the save/restarting the game doesn't fix it at all. As I said this is the second time this has happened: both times they've been flying worms and both times have been on desert planets with cactus flesh. It seems like a bug, but has anyone else run into this problem?

Why does this happen?? [Bug]

So Ethenion Prime is pretty much my home planet, which I discovered quite a while ago, I came back recently and the time and dates are real off and now it’s saying that someone else was the one to discover the system very recently. I have no idea when I exactly discovered it but it says I have discovered the planets, 6 months ago, 10 months ago, and 1 year ago, which Is a lot of time in between.

Appreciation post [Screenshot]

I love exploration in games so much! I got this game just over 4 months ago and don’t weeks exploring my planet when I started and knew I hadn’t explored everything but thought I had explored a lot and then I moved to exploring the galaxy, I went back to my planet today and found a number of plants that I could’ve sworn I had already discovered making me actually question if the system forgot I discovered it lol

Help understanding moving bases? [Question]

I have a base that's generally built out with landing pads, exocraft pads, workers in stations, farming, etc. I have a few storage pods and farming units set up, too. However, I used terrain manipulation and am not near a power hotspot, and want to move to a power hotspot.

What's the best way to do so? I have the base recycler....thing, but I don't know how it all works. I searched a bit but couldn't find something accurate to my question. Thanks!

Is anyone else unable to find fossils? [Question]

Question on freighter battles [Question]

Newish player (50 hrs) trying to get my first freighter as an S or A class.

I've watched this recent video but still confused on triggering freighter battles.

Is it the 5th time warping during a single session or cumulative? Is the 3 hours in-game time or real time (i.e. doing 5 warps, logging out, logging back in >3 hours real time later and doing a 6th warp which should trigger one?

I've warped 8+ times over more than 3 hours and not triggered a single freighter rescue. I'm on PC and been hard backing up my Steam saves before each warp into either 3-star economy systems or pirate systems, but haven't seen a single freighter rescue battle appear after waiting for the freighter fleet to warp in after I do.

I'm in a corvette but from what I've looked up that should still trigger them.

Help. I went to a new galaxy without knowing what it did. [Question]

So basically I was messing around with the portals, saw online that you could get to the center of the galaxy, heard that you could get to other galaxies from there so I went there and did that.

Went to the Hilbert Dimension, realised my ship and everything was damaged, then upon returning to Euclid I noticed I couldn't access any of my space stations that I had been to, or anything else. On top of this, it has reverted some of my quest progress, which is a right pain.

I just thought going to a new galaxy was for exploration purposes, not this

Is there some way to undo this? I'm willing to go as far as messing with save files if I really have to

Selling Corvette modules as a beginner? [Question]

how early should I start building a Corvette? I've got a decent amount of modules already. One is worth 3.5 million units which is more money than I currently have. Is there a place to, like, store these modules for when I actually start building one? I'm really just trying to declutter my inventory, and I feel like selling them is a bad idea? Thanks in advance!

Suggestions for all these annoying bugs [Discussion]

Don't reward us with things that can just make the game worse (invitations, why have multiple? Either have a mission objective we can go to, or don't have anything).

Who needs 2 stacks of invitations that are the same color and have the same names when you can just go battle somewhere / anywhere for 0 benefit other than showing us where the genetic archives are? Why add in Gold Championship matches when the second you jump into a portal or teleport somewhere you will end up never able to find the station again when only the first opened works and every successive use of it doesn't fix anything? Just add it as a mission waypoint, and if you get out of range it resets like the stupid living ship missions. I've done over 200 battles and have TWO championship battles and can't ever do another because of a stupid mechanic (and I know I'm not alone).

Oceanus? Yeah lets set up a daily mission for him that without selecting the mission (that doesn't stick / pin / etc..) you wouldn't stumble into or even know existed if you didn't randomly click some buttons or read about it somewhere. The OTHER travelers in the anomaly have timers, and their context changes if you've visited them today, so why make it so much harder?

Every time I try to tell people how great this game is and how there is nothing like it and how awesome Hello Games is some completely unacceptable UI bug or mission bug happens and it makes me remember how awesome and how trash this 'sandbox' is simultaneously.

[Bug Report] Fossil System is broken: Exocraft UI wipe, Ghost Displays, and Spawn Regressions [Bug]

Problem 1-- I land on a planet with ancient bones. Get out of starship. Use visor while on foot. I see fossil and vigilant stone icons in the distance. I suommon nomad exocraft. Get in and out of nomad. Did not do anything in nomad, just go in and out of it. Once again, I use visor while on foot. The fossil and vigilant stone icons are no longer there. Using nomad, I drive over to their location. I dig and find the vigilant stone and fossil beds, even though the icons did not show.  Only way to fix this problem is to restart entire game. Getting in and out of an exocraft causes problem to return. Does not matter whether Cyclops Scope is installed or not. Was tested both ways.

Problem 2-- Went fossil hunting using fully upgraded explorer ship and running around on foot (no use of exocraft). Fossils seemed like they were before the Relics update, where they are very far apart and hard to find.

Problem 3-- In some cases, I have found sites where there were just vigilant stones and no accompanying fossil beds. Without disturbing the stones I would dig massive holes underneath and all around the vigilant stones. No fossils. This particular issue is less common than the others.

Problem 4-- The display stands you use to assemble fossil displays- you can now walk straight through them. If you do, the display stands become ghosted. You can't interact with them, can't pick them up or delete them. You have to put a prefab room over them and delete the prefab room to get rid of them once they become ghosted like this.

Waste processing plants not being found? [Question]

I'm on a planet I really like that has salvageable scrap all over the place, but I can't find a waste processing plant for the life of me.

Does the species/planet of the settlements have any effect? [Question]

From what I've seen, the maximum number of settlements you can have is four, and there are four possible species for each settlement.

So my question is whether there are exclusive materials depending on the species inhabiting the settlement and the type of planet it's on.

Right now, I only have one Gek settlement on a desert planet that I got by buying a map at the space station.

Quality of life questions [Question]

I’ve put a few hours into the game (about 3) so far and I’m extremely enjoying it however I have few questions on some things that aren’t clear.

1.Is there a way early game to make quick money? One of the starting quests there is a purchasing microchips part and it took me a minute to gather up the money to buy them so I ended up just selling some vortex cubes.

2.ive seen people go in third person while flying a ship. How? How do you mine minerals from asteroids I’ve honestly been just flying threw them and it feels like that’s not the correct way to do it

Crashing during "Locate Dissonance Spikes" animation [Question]

I play on Steam on an M2 Mac, and from time to time the game crashes when I set up a base computer and claim a base, or when I use an Echo Locator, or "Locate Dissonance Spike" at a Harmonic Camp, etc.

It happens specifically during the animation where the camera rapidly shoots up into the sky while looking straight down at you, and the scan wave propagates out around you across the landscape.

Until today it seemed intermittent and random, but today it started happening at a Harmonic Camp every time I use "Locate Dissonance Spike". It was actually working fine at this camp yesterday and for most of today, and only started crashing after I found and used a second Harmonic Camp on the opposite side of the planet. Now it crashes every time I use the first camp.

I've tried turning off literally all graphics settings - everything on Standard, Vsync off, AniFilt 1, GTAO off, AA off, HDR off, Motion blur off. I've turned volumes down to 0 as well. Still happening, every time.

Anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

The Rocinante [Ship Builds (Glitch)]

I thought I'd try my hand and recreating the Rocinante from The Expanse. No mods required, and its still within the 100-piece cap. Credit to Barden, I followed his video for most of it.

The frame is mostly the same and a lot of the body panels are identical. The main difference is that the rear reactor section is longer and I used the Titan heavy boosters instead of Kineostream + Pyrodrive. I like the delta configuration better and I think it looks a little better proportioned this way. Don't ask me how I got them like that, it was over an hour fiddling with the ducting outlet glitch to get them all lined up correctly. I used the Hardframe Diffuser, Radiator Casing, Argonaut Fuel Cover and Longshore Cowling to enclose the drives.

I also added tube lights to the "railgun" (Sean plz, I need it to be real) and used the Argonaut Hydraulics piece below to act as the "capacitors."

P.S. If anyone knows a way to get SRTs to work in the corvette you should teach me that magic.

A Tale of a Solitary Traveler [Discussion]

Hello, anomalous friends. I’ve decided to follow the life of a solitary autophage explorer, so I created a save with a lone robotic wanderer and his junk ship. I’m following the main missions, trying to progress through the two primary questlines that became available to me in parallel. But I often get lost in the many side missions that appear, which I can’t abandon.

Given that, would you stop to complete these non-abandonable side missions, or just keep pushing through the main questlines? At what point am I missing out on content by not doing them?

Some of these missions force me to abandon the nomadic style I want for my little autophage robot, making me manage settlements or build a base for specific purposes.

On this journey, I’ve already faced some resource barrier. since my mothership doesn’t have the necessary technologies to reach certain places, farming becomes necessary. Even so, I continue to admire the beauty of this game.

Eternia for Masters of the Universe fans [Screenshot]

In my travels across the galaxies in search of paradise and earth-like planets I happened upon the magical yet technologically capable planet of Eternia. Home of the legendary Prince Adam. The ancient temple of Grayskull sits nestled on a floating rock ledge near the walled capital city of Eternos. A temperate planet with the occassional quite uplifting gravitational anomaly and electrical storms which are a sight to see around Grayskull. Very friendly and helpful locals; you all should visit sometime.

A.P. Forgeworks presents “APF-ML07” Codename Crown Meridian [Ship Builds Glitched]

This is the flagship of A.P. Forgeworks. The Crown Meridian is the second corvette I made back when I started playing this game 2 months ago and has had multiple iterations since; I made this shortly after I first seen someone else with a similar ship. This is multi-roll luxury mini freighter, so it’s a large corvette, much larger than most of the rest of the corvettes I have made. Unlike the APF-LB22 this corvette can be flown in first person seeing as the cockpit is tucked into the right side wing. Honestly my favorite part of this starship if the external and extravagant patio space tucked underneath the bow hull, it allows me to fish off it in my free time between builds and exploration.

Design details:

•70U length

•18U hull width

•56U wingspan

•3x Zenith-Class Reactors (for warp jump capability)

•4x Phase Beam Array (point defense, high DPS)

•2x Ambassador Heavy Boosters

•2x Kineostream Thrusters

•2x Deflector Shield (for stronger shields)

Complexity limit is 100/100

Meta Ship Names [Discussion]

I love this game. For so many reasons. But one of them is ship names.

Right now I’m camping on a 3 star economy trading post hoping that a exotic will drop in. I just got my first exotic. And while I am very happy with it, I am reluctant to get it all loaded up with technology because I’m fully expecting to run into a nicer exotic as soon after I finish. Which brings me to the explorer I just saw named...

Trapped myself in Corvette cockpit [Question]

Hi all,

I am still relatively new to the game, and was editing my Corvette for only the third time. As I was finishing, I decided to add one more air filter, which inadvertently trapped me in the cockpit. I don't seem to be able to teleport out of it, nor am I able to remove the piece from inside the Corvette. Any ideas? I am playing on vanilla FWIW, I have not tried any mods but I am open to suggestions if one could fix this.

Resetting location of system champion? [Question]

I've run into a system champion that I just cannot beat unless I grind up another comp. I very well could do that but all the normal tricks to reset a mission location aren't working so I'm wondering if we've figured out how to change the space station where the mission is.

This champion is nuts though. First comp does a death move that boost defensive stats by 100% for the whole party, followed up by a comp with a damage reflect shield and passive dot. Really the issue is that I just don't have a comp that can remove buffs that's at the appropriate level.

I just came back to play NMS after like 3 years and immediately after doing a pokemon battle at the space anomaly trainer, I found myself falling in the middle of open space.

What Milestones should I aim for? [Question]

I played NMS on launch and played it pretty frequently until around when the settlements first came out. I took a hiatus and have only recently come back to find the game very different but very exciting.

I have decided to start from the beginning and have made a new save.

I understand the core of the game, I had 600 hours on my main save. I am just looking for what should my clear milestones should be to focus on in the early game.

Also, I want to know the current best ways to make money and nanites, and what I should be aiming for regarding ships, multi tools, freighters.

For context, I have my assumption of the main milestones I think I should aim for based on my previous experience (in no real order):

• Finish Artemis Questline

• Expand the slots of Exosuit

• S tier Ship with full S tier upgrades,

• S tier Multi-Tool with S tier upgrades ( I focused on scanner and boltcaster previously)

• Nanite Farm (Runaway Mould)

• Units Farm (Activated Indium, although I'm pretty sure this hasn't been the meta for a while now)

X-302 from Stargate [Ship Builds Glitched]

I don't usually draw inspiration from or copy existing spaceships, but I got a little carried away this morning and finished this in 90 minutes, which should please some sci-fi fans.

It could use a few tweaks, I think, but I'm a bit too eager to share it, so here's my little version of the X-302 from Stargate.

S Class stuff, pays to keep that head on a swivel. Sorry for lack of glyphs, supprised I even had photos. [Screenshot]

A bunch of S class stuff I've come across the last few weeks. Some glyphs posted as I'm so adhd I'm supprised I even got pictures. Sentinal ship was a fluke, recieved on second sentinal ship encounter. S class royals are popping up a bit. love it. Pistol was found last night, same as the white s class ship. Ship finding is like buying a lottery ticket, and I love it. The glyphs for the blue ball s class are not true. The cake is a lie.

Atlantid Drive - Returning player [Question]

Hi all,
I'm coming back after a few year hiatus, and struggling to get the fancy new Atlantid drive.
I've completed Artemis & Atlas, but walked away at the end of Atlas - leaving me with a Mark of the Denier.

The guide I found (https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1ini37u/guide_to_unlock_purple_systemsgas_giants/) suggests that I need to also finish the Autophage missions, but I'm not familiar with them. (I have "New Beginnings" in my Log).

Thankful for any help/guidance.

Home base welcome book [Discussion]

Whenever I see a cool base that someone posted here or coordinate Exchange I like to pay a visit.

Anyway I'm always disappointed by the fact that I cannot l'et the player know that I had a Little tour in their home.....and that makes me sad.

So I was thinking: wouldn't It be cool if we had a little "welcome book" as a buildable object, that lets any player put their nametag and banner in a list that the owner, and everybody else passing by, can see and sign?

I don't even want no message, Just the player name!

I think It would be really cool to come back and check Who passed by for a Quick stop!

What do you guys think?

Dragons [Question]

Does anyone know how to get a dragon? My son really wants one and I am too old and can’t figure out how to tame them. They’re pretty high up and even if I get up there, I don’t see a button to tame it. We’ve seen them with other players though. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’m just asking how to tame them, I’m not asking for Eggs or anything. Don’t want to break the rules of this subreddit

My fast method to farm Corvette parts! [Suggestion]

Discovered yesterday, farmed 40 pieces in 5 minutes.

Use a corvette and fly over surface of a planet with buried corvette parts.

Stay on corvette.

Use visor while not using corvette.

Lock a buried part.

Fly the vette to the buried part.

Shot at the ground.

Profit + rinse and repeat on next buried parts.

New to NMS: Discovery Services stuck on "Connecting" in the TOP LEFT corner (ASK4 Network, UK) [Bug]

Hi everyone, I’m a new player to No Man's Sky on Steam and I’m having a really frustrating connection issue. From the very first time I opened the game, the connection status in the top left corner has been stuck on a spinning circle, and it never connects to the online services. Because of this, my Friend Code just shows up as a series of dashes "--", so I can't add my friends or join any games.

I live in an apartment in the UK that uses the ASK4 network. I’ve already tried several things to fix it: I flushed my DNS, tried using Google and Cloudflare DNS, and completely disabled IPv6 since I know some networks have trouble with it. I even tried using my mobile phone as a hotspot with my Wi-Fi turned off, but it didn't change anything. I also deleted the .MXML files in the SETTINGS folder to reset the config and verified the game files on Steam, but the top left corner is still just spinning.

My system time is perfectly synced with the local UK time, so I don't think it's a clock issue. Since I'm new to the game, I’m not sure if this is a known bug or if it's something specific to the ASK4 network in my apartment blocking the game's authentication. Does anyone know how to fix this or how I can finally get my Friend Code to show up? Any help would be much appreciated, I just want to play with my friends.💔

What is the speed cap of the Utopia Speeder? Is it the same as Starborn in atmosphere? [Question]

I can't find the details for this online. Is anyone able to test the speeds in atmosphere?

I've been using the Starborn Phoenix since my old save was lost and finally looking to upgrade.

For those who don't know, there is a cap on in atmosphere speed. The speedometer might show a higher number and the FoV increases but the time to travel is the same.

To test, put down some save beacons on flat terrain (over water is easiest) and look at the time to travel.

Does the game have a story? [Question]

Okay so let me explain my question further

I originally bought no mans sky all the way back when it released for ps4 played it and got bored eventually there was just nothing to do it was minecraft but space (I don’t dislike that but I just want something to strive for like an objective) and I pretty much didn’t touch it since other than when they added I think a car and I just used creative and messed around with it and thats it

So my question is the game more guided now as in if I want to follow its story will I have idk things that tell me where to go to progress the story?

Also does it even have a story? I remember there was this atlas thing but thats all I remember

Btw by story I’m thinking more like subnautica but a bit more guided where rather than explore and accidentally bump into a story related thing you’ll have something telling you go to this star system and this planet to discover some story related thing

Also how does the game perform on switch 2 is it good are there fps drops or is it locked at whatever fps its supposed to be running at

How do I scan for pets? It might be a bug, I'm not sure. [Question]

Obviously I can scan them to identify like plants and minerals but there nothing to show class of creatures and based on what I've seen in videos, it looks like people have a creature/foot icon in their visor .... but I just have the usual ones like electricity hotspot, gas, deep minerals etc.. do I need to do something to make it show up?

If I move the cursor all the way to the left or right, it just pops over to the other side...

I can't find any tech I'm missing to install... I've tried multiple weapons across multiple savegames.. it's nowhere.. I'm on Steam so I have the latest updates too... am I missing something or have I hit a bug?

Blue Squid Ship Base [Screenshot]

In the space station in this system, Blue squid ships are constantly landing here. Use this screenshot address and go to the space station, when you get there exit your ship to create an autosave then reload that save. Best one i got is with Hyperdrive range of 193.7

If you see any squid ship with less than 193 base hyperdrive range skip it and just jump into your ship and exit again to generate a save then reload that save. Keep going until you get a good one.

Best of Luck.

Did I end up wasting 50 million for nothing, or is there any way I can get the frigate back or call her?

#

Having a Cave finding feature, similar to hotspots [Suggestion]

Okay, so yes rather silly but one thing I love about NMS is scanning all the fauna on planets. Most planets it is easy to find a cave, a simple trick of locating any location of interest such as a Trade Outpost or Observatory. Then caves are often nearby.

Other times I can be wandering a planets surface for almost 30 minutes looking for a cave.

Finding underground fauna can be tough, it got me thinking would a scanner option of cave entrances or just caves be of any interest to other people?

Or is this way too niche?

Switch 2 not showing Glyphs in screensaves, and Freighter recolor issue - new to Switch player - help? [Question]

I cannot get glyphs to show up on my screensaves - Switch 2, just bought and updated 2 days ago, so of course waiting for Xeno update. I get the screensaves, see them in my Switch album but the glyphs seen onscreen when taking them does not show in the Switch 2 Album, nor do they show on my Android phone app when uploaded. Any idea why not?

2nd unrelated bug - Just bought a freighter and tried changing colors but the onscreen display does not change. After 2 tries I changed, vreated a save in the freighter base build area, reloaded and then the colors I chose appeared. But... when trying again to change colors, still no on-screen display of the new colors, but again having to reload a new save did work. Am I missing something with Switch 2? (I have Steam, GOG, PS4 & PS5 versions without this issue.) Any tips appreciated ;-) Did post 2 pics of issue with this text to Zendesk today.

Yet another stutter..... [Bug]

Hi guys so i have been having this stuttering issue for a while now. The worst thing is i dont know what is causing it!

I have intel i5 12400f, rtx 4060 and 16gb of ram.

I am playing the on high setting but whatever i changes it doesnt fix my stuttering.

The stutter itself is really weird. I havent seen anyone with the same issue.

So normaly i play on 70 fps and my 1% lows hover at 60-65 fps, my cpu sits at 40 % and gpu at 70-80% while ram is at 70%. But sometimes(it is at random i could warp to a new system, i can just be standing still on a planet or i can be flying no matter the ship...) it drops to 14fps and 1% lows to 4 also my cpu and gpu usage drops to low 20% or even 10%. But when i open my inventory or go into setting meniu or just any meniu(even in refinery meniu) the stutter disapiers until i exit out of the meniu

I have been tweeking my device manager to find the culprit uptaded everythig that can be updated. But no other game has this issue!

No man's sky concept: NPC invitation beacon/ "city" beacon [Suggestion]

Imagine this: you've built a massive base. Monolithic buildings, massive warehouses, refiners, farms, animals, ect. A city, just for fun. You're walking around, tending to your animals, when suddenly, you have a thought. You've got all this infrastructure, and nobody to share it with.

So, you place a ship landing pad. Then another, then another. Then, you place the item that is the point of this post. An "invitation/city" beacon (working title).

Suddenly, NPCs from across the galaxy start to land at your base, getting out to trade, walk around, "interact" with things, and buy from shop stands you could have placed around. The more infrastructure, the more popular your base is, the more NPCs come. Other players can see your base "popularity" from space, and come take a visit.

No more empty cities, and insane, meticulous builds will have a purpose, to bring commerce and socialization. To establish a planet as a bustling hub for business. ENDLESS expansion opportunity to colonize an entire planet.

Let me know what you think :) please be kind, I got this idea after seeing a city build that looked unfortunately empty.

Is it sad that you never go back to Ancient Ruins ? [Discussion]

  • Ancient ruins

  • Drop pods (or how they're called that contain the exosuit slot upgrade

  • (Abandoned) Factories

  • Observatories

  • Small settlements

  • Crashed freighters

and possibly others appear to me to have in common that they are essentially, how I would describe it, static and quite shallow game loops that hardly interact.

Only the trade outpost reappears in a couple of game loops. And, yes, the "ruins" loop is continued in the giant archives. And, ok, where people are present the dialogue reveals some backstory, may trigger a mission, and it took me 300 hours of learning vocabulary to know whether the Korvax guys need an organic or metallic element to survive. Stil, all in all planets are littered with shallow, disparate content.

Sure, I get it, Hello Games needs to get a maximum of overlap with Light No Fire out of the development for NMS. And I am not ignoring the value of having so many wildly different (albeit but mildly interconnected) systems. Settlements, fossils, corvettes, recycling garbage, xénomon — all great ! And all very isolated: I don't need a corvette to transport a pet to an arena fight, recycling garbage does not aid in developing my settlement nor does my settlement produce garbage, and having a fossil collection does not impress anyone at the Giant Archive.

So, without discounting all the value that we have in this game, how does this forum feel about deeper procedural content? (And I'm sure this has been discussed at length before and someone will have a link to share. Thanks in advance. 🙏)

Don't miss this reward from the anomaly detector [Screenshot]

Most of the time the anomalies for the anomaly detector are useless, but if you ever come across a crashed corvette like this, make sure to get out because you can mine the reactor componants on each half of the corvette for some rewards.

This goes the same for crashed freighters in space too, you can find all the same cargo pods in space as you can with the crashed freighters on planets, albeit in space the cargo pods are MASSIVE 😂

Tried building the most absurd Corvette… Turns out I really like it… [Ship Builds]

Have collected many cloned parts from people. Buddy built tall ship and said the limit was 100 parts. I wanted to see what a monster I could create. Built a skeleton setup, added parts to get the best bonuses. Tore down the skeleton and built around the parts actually providing good boosts. Ended up with this thing. Took it on a test flight and love it.

Floating Settlement? [BUG] [Bug]

Anyone else find their settlement to be 'floating' mid-air following an absence? I loaded the game from a file around 2 months old, and now have a settlement suspended in mid-air. You can pass underneath the buildings without obstruction. I am unsure if it's due to a new build (spaceport) or an old construction near the settlement - none of which affected it previously. Moving the corvette didn't affect it whatsoever.

Any ideas I'm grateful for - This is my 'home' base and settlement, and would hate to have to tear it down or relocate.

Ideas to organize my mothership / operational hub [Fan Work]

Hello anomalous friends, I love this community and I’m here to share two layout organization ideas for my freighter / mothership.

Even though I haven’t found THAT S-class freighter yet, I’m happy with my dreadnought and I’ll stick with it until I find the one I’ve been dreaming of.

Above, I’ve shared two ideas I’ve been working on to distribute the various operational rooms available in the game’s building mode. I’d appreciate some help with the logic behind arranging these sections and whether they might end up causing me trouble. Keep in mind that this ship is my mobile base. I’m a nomadic Autophage traveling through this vast, but not so empty, cosmos, collecting all sorts of junk and trinkets I come across.

I need some feedback before I start building.

I’m not sure if these images go against the subreddit rules, but I made them with care for our community, so feel free to use and modify them in your own journeys.

Is this game worth it, coming from somebody who doesn't play survival games? [Question]

I have had my eyes on this game for a while, but have never bought it because of the price. I really enjoy sci-fi related games, such as FTL, Stellaris, and Outer Wilds, and while i think id like this game i have also never played a survival game before. Could this game be enjoyed by someone who has never played/enjoyed a traditional survival game before?

Switch 2 crossplatform [Question]

I've seen (after buying the game full price : ouch) that crossplatform is currently unavailable due to the switch 2 version being older than the version in most platforms. However, is it able to crossplay with a switch 1 ? Or is it even able to crossplay with other versions if they haven't updated their game yet ?

How rare is this ? [Screenshot]

I recently discovered this planet, Vermillion Globe. From what I've read on the NMS forum, it's one of the Mega Exotic planets, which already makes it rare. But what were the chances that this planet was also dissonant and colliding with another planet? And finally, that these two planets shared the same species of fauna: the skeletal mammoth?

How do I get to different galaxies? [Question]

I ask because I’m pretty stuck to Euclid and Eissentam because I have bases there. But I’ve found coordinates for an Exotic I’d like but it’s in Isdoraijung and I’d ask about how to get to other galaxies as well. I’ve unlocked all coordinates, so do I really need to get lucky with bases shown in the Anomaly?

Is Hello Games about to be nationalised? [Information]

Hello Games Ltd is controlled via Hello Games Holdings Ltd, which has the right to appoint the directors - currently just Sean Murray. Sean Murray is also the controlling shareholder of the holding company.

The public records of the holding company ( https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/14815459/filing-history ) include the following notice:

"FIRST GAZETTE NOTICE

14815459 HELLO GAMES HOLDINGS LIMITED

Publication date in the Gazette: 17/03/2026

The Registrar of Companies gives notice that, unless cause is shown to the contrary, the Company will be struck off the register and dissolved not less than 2 months from the date shown above.

Upon the Company's dissolution, all property and rights vested in, or held in trust for, the Company are deemed to be bona vacantia, and will belong to the Crown."

I am not a lawyer, so I'm probably jumping to conclusions but I notice the holding company should have filed their latest accounts by 17th January, but apparently have not done so. Seems like they now have less than a month to get this sorted, or the British Crown (as advised by HM Government) gets to decide who runs Hello Games Ltd.

Can I synchronize saves? [Question]

I hosted a session over the weekend to get my kids into the game. It worked, they loved it!

But, after a couple hours I had to go make dinner. I exited my game, expecting them both to be kicked, but they weren't. My daughter exited, but my son kept playing to decorate his base. Is there any way to get his changes back to my save?

I thought about using his copy to host a session and then overwrite my save, but I'm worried because every time we warped systems on my freighter they were on totally different layouts for the freighter and I don't want to lose my layout.

In the future I'll just leave my session running until he's done, but how do I synchronize this time so that next time I host a session his base is how he wants it?

My Turn To Share Me Sailin' Ship, Mateys... [Ship Builds Video]

All default, except for a few tweaks;

The free floating bubbles and aquatic holograms was available for the first week or so, and still are for bases I think? Place a structure, then the item you want on top of it, then remove the connecting structure. But now that can't be done in game for Corvettes unfortunately; legacy designs still work, and you can replicate it with external tools, but it's not available to build.

The jet engine and landing thrusters can't be aligned on the centre line of the 4 engine casing pieces; that I needed an external tool for.

Lining the "sails" up exactly onto the masts is a swine in game, they can be done, if wonkily, so I nudged them with the base building tool as well.

Fun things you can do with default;

Add creatures, rocks, planets to your Personal Records, then rescale the Wonder Projectors to give you living creatures etc aboard; You can update the wonder at any time and then re-apply it to the projector, but you're limited to a maximum of 12 chosen records total, and 8 projectors per base/Corvette... the Holographic Buddy, Organic Frigate Calf etc can be added as much as you like on top of those 8, hence the crewmate at the wheel, next to a display of the deepest ocean planet I've found so far, Pinchy the Pirates Pal in the crow's nest, the fish and squid under the ship etc.

Hide Flaming Barrels inside structures for burning effects, as seen here in the barrels of the Cannon, and inside jet engine casings etc (not so obvious in these shots); place the barrel first, then the object to hide it afterwards, you may need to shuffle the hiding object a little so it's aligned just off the flaming barrel, then scale it upwards to cover; the effect is a little forward of the barrel so you should be able to hide it without hiding the flames.

For the Cannon structure, I used the Draw Cart as the base, Storage...

Back less than a week, crazy luck and fun so far! [Screenshot]

I played about 60 hours back in '22, but a lot of that was system hopping before taking a portal skip to the center of the galaxy. I stopped playing after that, but between the corvettes and new pet battles, I needed to play some more, so I made a new save last Tuesday!

I got my first ever sentinel ship tonight (slick in all black, but only a C class) and when I returned to the station, this squid was parked waiting! I had a pink squid in my OG save, so this hot rod will certainly be getting some use!

I'm still trying to figure out exactly how to set up money and resource farms, so I'll probably be digging into guides this week now that I've got my space legs.

IMPORTANT "The Purge" mission tip [Information]

Also I feel pretty stupid. SPOILERS

So the mission at the end of the Artemis questline where you warp 16 times to the galactic core? Well I made up 16 warp cells and was ready to go. But spent all 16 cells and didnt even get 5 glyphs. Landed on a random planet, made up 16 more cells, then tried again. Still only getting a glyph every so often. Then I realized

You have to wait a few seconds when you warp into a new system - THEN it gives you the glyph. I was warping systems so quickly the game wouldn't process it and I didnt get the glyph, and made like 30 warp cells and warped like 30 times. So pro tip!!! Wait a few seconds and you WILL get the glyph!!!

#

This good? [Screenshot]

i started the game only a few days ago (23 hours game total), watch soo many YouTube people having cool bigger ships. and after getting my first C class freighter and I went immediately teleport to another system and found C class pirate dreadnaught. I learn the 3Hour/5Warp part, so I just warp 4 pirate system and then go AFK for 3-4 hours until I'm certain the next warp is the pirate event.

how cooked am i? cloud saves [Question]

i use the cloud saves/cross play feature a lot. ill play on my PC the majority of the time and on the ps5 while in bed.

The last week ive only played PC, put in about 40ish hours so quite a decent chunk of progress.

I just turned on and logged into the PS5 to find the game still running (ps5 in rest mode) and find myself in an earlier save.

The game then immediately autosaved.

How cooked am I? i cant use the PC right now to check either so Im a little stressed over my progress being wiped.

Traveling through teleporters in other galaxies [Question]

I built the ship from one of my favorite DOS games, EGA Trek, [Ship Builds]

It was a bit challenging. If you look at the “blueprint” out of the game (first picture here) it doesn’t give you much to work with. So i took some [read: several] creative liberties. And i know all the exterior textures I’ve added are not perfect, but I’m extremely satisfied.

Enjoy the pics! Would love feedback. 🙂

Need help finding/getting this pet! Will trade anything! [Question]

It’s a Strider with a bug head, wings, long tail (kinda split) with two toed legs. I play on PS5 so I can’t get a bot to make one for me. And I’d be really really really great full if someone could make one for me! But the other thing is I’m really picky. And idk how it works, but if you can adjust the proportions of it could you PLEASE make it so it’s like the one I have, I love its big bug head (it’s an adult btw) also the long antenna are so damn cute! Also are you able to make the legs slightly shorter than the black and white reference? If not, that’s fine! Colour, height and weight DO NOT matter! Idk if you can do patterns so I don’t mind which! Oh and traits I don’t mind! I don’t have any exclusive items but I can gather the resources you want in exchange! Thank you!!!

An unusual request for help related to my Spec-Biology project [Community Content]

Hi everyone!

As some of you may know, I'm working on a Speculative Biology project, "A Research of No Man's Sky", and I would like to ask for some help with it.

The most recent animal I'm working on (in the lore of the project) can be found on multiple planets as feral populations nowadays due to being kept as pets by the First Spawn when the empire existed.

And due to me being something of a perfectionist, I want to be as precise/""realistic"" as I can get when I want to name such planets in the projects

So, what I wanted to ask you guys is if you could help me out by helping me sweep through Lejete Cluster and the surrounding regions of space for a planet(s) that fit that I could consider a "realistic habitats" for feral Exandac populations.

(In the case if you want to help me out with this, check the comments for more information, but if you can't or won't, that's okay as well :) )

The Growth of My Corvette, The Voice of Clouds [Screenshot]

I made a big beefy boi overtime, and I'm proud of this monster. But I am probably gonna make a new Corvette with a more unique design at some point, one with a more coherent shape to it. Still, for my first real Corvette, I think it turned out pretty well in the end, even if I do prefer the overall shape of the second iteration.

I also ended up rebuilding my first Corvette design (my temporary design from the first screenshot) as a new Corvette, which I named "Cloud's Legacy." Why? Nostalgia, mostly.

Also as the title says, I don’t own a freighter yet so I’m trying to make this my free one. Hoping that’s not the issue?

Awkward solution to galaxy map navigation & idea to improve? [Suggestion]

Hi guys,

As we all know the galaxies are vast. For longer voyages we use glyphs. For known places, we use portals. On rare occasions we use custom way-points, which are not great as with freighters reaching 6kLY ranges jumping just 300-400LY is not great. As long as you have your bases/places in ~6kLY radius, you can still use custom way-points to sort of aim you in the right direction and still jump when you see the place on the map. That's unless you don't have a base there and planet name is no longer displayed.

What about longer voyages? Custom way-point indicator is useless. Which makes the whole freighter long range jump system kind of useless as well.

There is a way to jump around longer distances, but it is kind of awkward to use.

Using your current system glyphs and your destination system glyphs, you can use Pilgrim Star Path by pahefu to get the general idea where to point your jump. You convert your glyphs to coordinates (with say No Man's Sky Coordinate Exchange calculator), input them into Pilgrim Star Path and you get your distance and rough direction. After each jump you re-enter new location coordinates and Pilgrim Star Path gives you updated data on angle towards galaxy centre, distance and if you're above or below the target.

This is all very well and I have successfully travelled between some of my more spread out locations and even set up some "lighthouse" bases along the way so I can just jump with the galaxy map and still make the destination once I make the trek at least once and leave the "breadcrumb trail".

Initial voyage is a bit of a hassle though, because after every 1-3 jumps you need to check your location glyphs, alt tab to calculator, paste coords to Pilgrim Star Path and verify if you're on course or not. Example on the screenshot, I have 22 jumps with my ~5900LY drive between "my space" and the...

Xeno battles no System Champion marker. [Question]

Anyone encountered this with Xeno battles - I couldn't beat a System Champion with my pitiful deck so just gave up & went on my travels. Several days & star systems later I tried again doing the rounds to get another champion invite but when I activated it I didn't get a marker in that system pointing me to the space station. Sadly as it had been a few days I don't have a save to re-load but then I spotted I still have a champions invite mission in my log so figured I had to compete the original one I abandoned. Tracked my way back there & he's just a normal player not a champion. Can't seem to drop that invite I get no marker on the Galaxy map or active mission path & I tried several times now doing the rounds to get a new invites but each time I activate them same deal I don't get a new marker for that space station.

Can I stop corvettes catastrophically breaking? [Bug]

So I downloaded NMS again because I was so excited by ship building mechanics, and I spent hours farming parts and nanites to build and upgrade my first corvette (The Rocky Road), and it was awesome and I liked it. Then the image of the ship in the summon menu thing disappeared and it refused to land or be summoned, and the stats got all borked and I couldn't edit the ship any more to even reclaim the parts. I was disappointed but I traded it and built a new ship that I liked even better (Daffodil Mulligan) and while it had some minor bugs at first with tech modules disappearing and coming back in the wrong order but otherwise it was great. Then a patch got downloaded and the minor bugs disappeared, and I fell in love with my new ship. Then the image of the ship disappeared from the summon menu thing and my heart sank. It's not the identical issue; for example the new ship can't be modified because there's "no corvette to modify" rather than because the parts "are not connected", and some other minor stuff, but it's irreparably broken and I'm this close to putting the game down for a while. Before I do that, though, I should ask if there's a way to prevent this happening on xbox? I'm sure on pc there are ways but mine died last week so I'm stuck on xbox for now.

Champion's invitation lock workaround - Empty or abandoned Space Stations [Bug]

If you got stuck using the Champion's invitation on an empty system and no challenger appears even if you use multiple times the invitations here is what worked for me but I must say, do this at your own risk. I play from a computer. Disabled the STEAM saved data Went to a populated system and stayed at my freighter. Saved the game BACKED UP my saves. They are located here: %APPDATA%\HelloGames\NMS Downloaded the save editor NMSSaveEditor (Runs with Java). For some reason I couldn't edit the JSON from NomNom. Opened the saved game, selected the save and in the menu selected Edit/Edit Raw JSON In the navigation tree on the left went to BaseContext/PlayerStateData/MissionProgress After selecting MissionProgress, clicked on the JSON Editor on the right and pressed Ctrl+F to search and located the word CHAMP. It says "Mission":"^PB_CHAMP_INVITE", Changed the Progress from 3 to -1 and exit the JSON editor.

The code looks like this:

  2. Go back to the game and the mission appeard again in the space station in the local system.

I played a couple of battles and everything seems to be working just fine.

Damaged Ship [Question]

Hey guys, I’m new to the game. I played it for like 30 minutes a couple years ago and never touched it again, but this time I’m having an absolute blast!

I have a question though. I came across a damaged spaceship and claimed it. I want to repair it and use but it’s on its head with one wing stuck inside of the ground (Nearly the whole ship was stuck in the ground when I walked up 💀). So I’m wondering if anyone else has come across this, and if so, will able be able to fly it if I repair it, or will it be stuck in the ground?

I suppose if it is, I could make it my main ship or something then teleport somewhere. Is that doable?

My Xeno pets are hungry, let me feed them [Suggestion]

NMS should add the ability to feed your Xeno pets with cooked food before the battle.

It could buff certain things like health level, resistances to damage types, agility, etc. For example, a Questionably Sweet Cake could temporarily add +1 to the agility level of your pet for this one battle.

Limit it to one food item per pet per battle, so you need to feed your pets once before the battle and pick what effect you wanted for each pet.

I love the cooking aspect of the game, but don't really use most of the foods anymore. Why get a bonus to scanning rewards if you already have billions of units? Applying foods to Xeno battles would keep them relevant for more of the game.

Chicxulub’s Shard MkVII [Ship Builds Glitched]

An update to a previous post:

Named after the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, this is the result of incremental visual improvements to the first corvette build I’ve actually been satisfied with.

As in posts passim, I love fleavettes, but was driven by the concept of one being stapled to the side of an absurdly large cluster of engines.

For colours and markings, I looked to the work of Stewart Cowley for inspiration and I’m pretty chuffed with how things turned out.

N.B. I built the fleavette part in the centre of the landing pad, with the engine cluster off to one side. An unexpected consequence of this was that, where a corvette will typically rotate around its centre when descending, this build swings the engine cluster in a huge arc as it descends, which looks cool af 😎

Playing on the hardest* difficulty [Discussion]

I picked up No Man's Sky about a month ago, been playing the living hell out of it. I love the freedom, the exploration, the beautiful visuals (I'm not used to next gen gaming so this is a treat for me!!). I started a new game on all the hardest difficulty settings except not abandoned mode.

I've been having a lot of fun with it. It's funny how despite playing on max difficulty, the game is still really relaxing and it's still pretty hard to die. I like feeling like my actions have consequences and having a reason to actually pay attention to my surroundings. I like having to judge risk and reward. I like knowing that a player could swoop down in a spaceship and blow me up if they wanted to. It all makes me feel like an inhabitant of this fictional universe rather than just a tourist there to see what they can see. Even the inventory limits, I think are kinda good for me because they prevent me from going on long, monotonous mining trips.

I like that even though the universe is sometimes lonely, it never feels dark. There are friendly faces in every space station who will lend me a hand out of kindness. There is beautiful life I never would have imagined on most planets. It's almost like a cozy game in the best way, once you learn how to play, as long as you don't piss off the sentinels. One day I will die and that's OK, it's all about the journey.

Millennium Falcon(Solo & Lando) [Ship Builds Blender]

After more than forty days of working, the MSI team is thrilled to bring you our blockbuster creation! The iconic legendary starship from Star Wars — the Millennium Falcon — is officially completed and launched!

This project is a collaboration between M1KO, Xiaojianmao, Lin Jia_Lin, and leo-1122. We’ve done our best to restore every detail of the Millennium Falcon, inside and out, recreating the original starship’s structure to the greatest extent possible. At the same time, we’ve made repeated optimizations and adjustments through multiple iterations, greatly reducing the number of model modules to ensure that most players can load it easily and enjoy a smooth gaming experience with no lag.

After a team discussion, we’ve decided: the Millennium Falcon (Solo Edition) will be permanently free to upload.

Any tips for new players? [Suggestion]

Hello everybody, my group of friends and I just started this game this last weekend. We all finished the tutorial until the Anomaly and now I'm wondering how to deal with the game.

The fun fact is we all are Minecraft experts since childhood, but this game really confuses me a lot.

Basically, our plan is to find a very good planet to settle, but we have different doubts, so I'll go with a list of questions: After Anomaly, what am I suggested to do? I saw that Anomaly NPCs have LOTS of things to unlock which I don't know where to start, I got really confused. How should we handle the multiplayer thing? I have read how offline mode works, when you upload from your computer etc... but buildings talking, do we have to stay away from each other around 300 meters? Or can we safely put our computer randomly and try to connect our buildings in some way? How does the exploration work in general? Do you put a portal to every planet which has a mineral that you need? Is trading with friends possible?

I may have further questions, I hope you can answer, thanks.

Flying into colliding planets crashes my game - Am I the only one? (PC, 9070 XT) [Question]

Hey guys.

As you read in the title - since I switched my GPU (3080 to 9070 XT) a few months ago, I hadn't actually tried to fly into colliding planets, specifically into the place where they collide.

When I'm in my starship, flying into the colliding point, my game crashes. Every. Single. Time. I've already tried about 5 times, and I'm kind of getting frustrated by it, and I'm pretty sure it's something to do with my GPU, since with the 3080 I never had issues like this one.

Is this happening to anyone else? Is this a known issue by any chance? Maybe I can tweak some graphic settings or something? I have no idea where to start troubleshooting tbh.

I'm marking this post as a question instead of a bug since I'm not sure if I'm an isolated case or whatever.

Many thanks in advance.

The pet arena update [Discussion]

Honestly I’m not to sure how to feel about this update I’ve lvls up my pets and fought them I have a full deck of lvl 30s all S and I’m smashing league not oven ending one but the I get to champions and I’m just getting crushed how is it so one sided. I have won 51 arena wars and still unlocked nothing from Oceanus like come on give me somthing to 10 wins like an egg 🥚 it can be a bad egg but by the look of it you need hundreds of wins before you get the first unlock able gift.

I hope they update the visors to show what animals are what tier and skills so you don’t have to tame them to look.

Still unable to ride animals in the water 😢

Still loads of untameable creatures 😢

Corvette Show & Meet - April 24 to 25, 3:00 PM PT / 6:00 PM ET [Information]

Good afternoon, y’all! Hope you’re all doing mighty fine today.

You are cordially invited to a Corvette Show & Meet, happening on April 24th and 25th, at 3:00 PM PT/6:00 PM ET. Two days where you can drop in, take a walk, and admire some of the finest creations around.

Step right in and enjoy a space where builders from all over gather to showcase their corvettes, exchange ideas, and pick up a trick or two to make their next design shine even brighter.

Now, a quick heads-up: you might not see everyone at once, as the game can only handle so much action. If you’d like to meet new folks, simply head over to Escape then Network Options, toggle multiplayer off... And on again, and you’ll hop into a different instance with a fresh crowd.

We kindly ask that your ships stay within the 100 piece corvette limit, so everything runs smooth and everyone gets a good look at each other’s work.

And don’t you wander too far, folks. On April 26th, there’s another fine event hosted by MaverickNMS. Be sure to check out his Post for the exact time and coordinates!

So mark your calendars, polish those hulls, and we’ll see y’all there.

Save Editor Question (Xbox/Steam) [Question]

I play on Xbox but there's quite a few elements from past Expeditions that I don't have access to. I love playing the reduxes, but as most of those are for Expeditions from that year and not much in the way of earlier ones I was leaning towards utilizing the cross platform ability through Steam to import my game, edit the save and send it back to Xbox.

Unfortunately, my laptop is not often used and is pretty out of date - Do I need to be able to play the game on my laptop to access the save files for the editor or will I be able to simply import the files, edit and then export them?

Also, are there chances of my save being corrupted? I'm not interested in any kind of mass alteration - I just want to have past items, cosmetics and ships available to me.

Built new corvette which deleted my previous main ship [Discussion]

An interesting bug involving cargo ships [Bug]

Today, as usual, I completed a Nexus mission, and it sent me to this system. As soon as I arrived, I immediately saw a pirate cargo ship. I was surprised because they don’t just spawn like that, and there were as many as 2 of them (3 my original). They weren’t phantoms; the game recognized them as full-fledged cargo ships, and they were exact copies of my cargo ship. When I entered one of these copies, everything was normal, but as soon as I stepped out of the starship, my character acted like I was in open space XD

Anyway, it’s a funny bug - I liked it

LPT Don't build bases/corvettes to be convenient [Suggestion]

I've found the immersion so much better by deliberately NOT putting tech like refiners etc close together and convenient. This way, you've have different rooms and locations for different things and will have to walk around visiting different areas of your beloved creations.

I use mods, however as examples, I put the health station in the med bay, refiner in a workshop/hanger/cargo bay, hazard station in a reactor/generator room, barrels and crates which give items in storage area, mission Radar away from cockpit, and so on.

It's just a lot more fun leaving the cockpit and walking around to get things done.

Random valuable item popped in my inventory in anomaly [Question]

Hi all! New player here!
TLDR: Is this an hacker thing? In case I will discard this
While I was sitting in the anomaly afk 50 of the item listed here below (600 milion value) appearead in my inventory
Since is a lot of money and I barely started the grind I was about to destroy it since I think it could harm my progression of the game.
But Im also playing with my girlfriend so I was thinking to give this to her
But... Is this from a player? Is this from an hacker? Can I be ban in case if I give these to my gf and she is selling them? Am I overthinking?
Sorry for bad english and thank you!

The Anomaly needs a full sized Xeno Arena for tournaments [Suggestion]

I love the new xeno arena update I feel like it adds a ton of depth to the companion gameplay and PvP gameplay but I feel like there’s a huge missed opportunity with this system.

What if the Anomaly had a proper full sized arena built into it?

Like a full stadium space where your creatures appear as full sized holograms in the center, battling while players can walk around it and watch. You could have spectator seating all around so people can actually sit and watch matches live, kind of like the real stadium.

On each side there could be battle terminals where players queue up or initiate fights, and once a match starts it plays out in the arena for everyone to see. With big health bars displayed for the audience.

I’ve created a super badly drawn idea of what it might look like in the 2nd photo. And full credit to u/SONSII_Z for images 3 & 4. I saw their post where they used glitch building to scale the arena up and it looked amazing. Seeing the creatures at full size made it feel way more like an actual event instead of just a tabletop board game and really inspired this post.

Was digging through my old Discord messages and found a piece of History [Screenshot]

The very first meeting of 2 people in NMS. It’s still there to this day. At the very center of the Galaxy. This is where I started the system known as the Huber. Connecting so many people to the Galactic Hub and the populated colonies we all know and enjoy now. Feel free to stop by, I may have to reupload, so feel free to let me know, but the planet is still pretty much the same as the day we landed.

Xenoballs [Discussion]

One thing I feel is missing from the xeno arena update is a capture mechanic.

I get it kind of occupies the same space as the companion register, but to me a significant pillar of the creature collector genre is capture. It's just so satisfying when the lock clicks, y'know?

Not sure how it would work or what benefits it would have compared to default registration, but I think fully separating the pet aspect from the arena makes sense thematically. The arena is a holo game and our companion register is physical animals.

#

Anyone else want personal xeno arenas? [Question]

Anyone else hope we get placeable xeno arenas for bases and Corvette's, with the ability to battle our creatures against the rest of our own creatures? So you can practice your moves and train without gaining xp, while your ai controlled creatures see how they can stack up. I think it would definitely be slick as hell, even to just set up a constant auto battle between my creatures to watch and not participate in.

Help! My freighter is duplicating... [Bug]

I did some traveling (with the freighter) and 2 times so far there was another copy of my freighter... The copies have identical colors and collision but if I try to land on them, I'm floating without my spaceship inside of the empty freighter hull (meaning no landing bay area, just empty space). If I try to fly out, I get blocked by the collision from the inside... Only way is to jump with my starship to a different system.

Is this a known bug? Can I salvage the copies? How many copies can I get?

ITERATION-Σ // Sanguine Edge [Ship Builds]

Registry Code: ATLAS-Σ-0921-SSPB

Class: Stealth Bomber / Strategic Penetration Craft

Alignment: Atlas Directive — Preemptive Erasure Doctrine

Operational Status: Active

Clearance Level: AXIOM // [REDACTED] Overview

The Sanguine Edge represents a departure from conventional Atlas aggression doctrine. Where other iterations project force, Σ-class constructs are designed to remove resistance before conflict materializes.

Its wide, angular frame and layered hull geometry are optimized for signal diffusion and absorption, allowing the craft to pass through heavily monitored systems without triggering standard detection arrays. The ship’s silhouette—resembling a fractured blade—reflects its purpose: to cut cleanly and without warning.

Observed configurations show a dual-engine rear assembly with suppressed exhaust signatures and a centralized Atlas a emitting controlled geometric energy patterns. All external weapon systems are either flush-integrated or retractable, maintaining its low-observable profile at all times.

Where the Crimson Vector dominates and the Scarlet Shard hunts, the Sanguine Edge removes the battlefield entirely.


The third in a series of Atlas-inspired corvette builds I've done. This was certainly a very fun build! More Atlas builds coming soon...

Would you pay a fee for uploading unlimited bases? [Question]

Completely out of pocket, happy to be corrected, just want to offer a point of discussion for a decade old game that we all love

I heard that the limit (last I checked) was 400 bases per save game.

I already purchased multiple copies of the game for family members, I also have a copy on Ps5 - I know we all want Sean to take our money as much as possible, and I know many of us hate subscriptions but I would support keeping the game alive as much as possible and having the ability to support HG somehow and be able to keep building bases (I think) would be a great idea. If not a one time fee, I would support a subscription (even though I hate them) because I love the game so much

Love to hear everyone's thoughts. Happy travels 🙏❤️

Disclaimer: I do not work for HG and I am not Sean lol but happy for people to weigh in. I just thought the up keep on the servers may need a bit of support in future.

What is this? [Question]

If you recognize “Super Gek” then I owe you [Discussion]

This is a pretty big Hail Mary as this was likely around 3 years ago but I remember a traveller in the anomaly who gave me things then brought me to his freighter and base. I don’t remember his name but I called my “name” (wasn’t my username) as Super Gek because I made a Gek that looked like a super hero who was black and white (Vague Ik but hopefully the name Super Gek helps)

When you took me to your base, I had placed a communication station, I don’t remember what it said and I didn’t know at the time that you couldn’t remove it

I would continue playing and learn later that you couldn’t remove them and I felt guilty as your base was nice in my eyes.

If you remember me and still even play the game or are on this subreddit, tell me your planet cords and I will remove it. This quest has gone on for so long for me and I pray to the atlas that we may unite once again for me to cleanse my sins.

Sincerely, A stupid child (at the time) who you played along with and empowered Super Gek

My ode to this game [Discussion]

I don't know what your individual playstyles are, maybe you're aiming to be the richest, the strongest, or to have the most ships...

But for me, it’s about fleeing as far as possible, reaching the edges of the galaxies. Establishing bases on empty planets, in totally unexplored regions—there’s a biblical aspect to it that I love. I spend hours searching for the planet least suited to life (Zero Fauna/Flora/Sentinel), landing, building a sanctuary, and just listening to the ambient sounds of the game. My latest discovery, at the edge of Yuwarugha, is a planet of extraordinary calm, lulled by winds that sound like mystical whispers.

This game is a masterpiece.

Xenomon has changed my game 💯 [Discussion]

This is a short post and has been said. As some one who preordered, I feel like I need to at least post my appreciation.

Early on I gave up scanning animals. I gave up visiting extreme planets. Finding gear passed the time. Setting rules for space ships I could buy helped. Then Voyagers came out, Rejuvenation! But there was still something missing.

Waiting for the next update as we do, honestly I was hoping for more Corvette parts, base building revamp, something. Then Xeno Arena came out. I…was…unimpressed….

Fast forward 5 days later and I’m visiting every planet in every system. Now having a decent spread of ships and corvettes is a must for scanning and finding pets. This update has literally changed the game. I know this post Dosnt say anything profound but I just wanted to voice how much I love NMS and Hello Games. The keep pumping out perfection and things I didn’t know I wanted

I’ve split my time between searching for them in essentiam(lush) and elkupalos(normal) and I am only looking in gas giant systems for the view.

How to increase companion helpfulness [Question]

I'm very confused.

  • I have a companion with 12% playfulness (pic 1). I got an egg from that companion and I want to use the egg sequencer to give the hatchling 100% helpfulness.

  • The wiki says I can use tortured honeycake to do that (pic 2), but when I put the egg and the tortured honeycake into the egg sequencer it tells me the result will be increased playfulness (pics 3 & 4).

  • When I run the sequencer the output tells me helpfulness has increased (pic 5), so the opposite of what I was told before running the sequencer.

  • The wiki suggested the sequencer has a bug and I found some threads saying to just keep going, ignoring the prediction that playfulness is increasing. I did this with a different egg and it hatched as a companion with 100% playfulness (pic 6).

So what is going on and what's the best way to increase the helpfulness of an egg?

On a related note, surely this needed to be fixed as part of the update?

Build Limit [Discussion]

After close to 1,000 hours in, 1,100 planets fully scanned of all life, 1,500 or so system discoveries, and dozens of 'rare' worlds, I hit the only reason I needed to ever quit this game. I was part way through a build when I realized I had hit the 20k mark... Such a small amount in an infinite game makes little sense in our modern day of gaming tech. I understand there would be some backend struggles for a time, but wouldn't it make more sense to have a higher limit? Like 3k per base is great, plenty even, but 20k overall for a save file is ridiculous. Long term players are forced to start a new file to build, but only after obtaining everything they need AGAIN. Four years at least, this has been a problem. Hello proves yet again that they don't care about the long term players, they just want more people to play in general. Regardless of how the playerbase feels, they will continue updating down whatever path they see fit. It's really a shame. They could be the most popular game around with just a few issue tweaks. Higher build limit, ability to text others on console, a reason to do anything pvp at all, just to name a few game changing fixes that would draw back droves of my fellow quitters. But for this Traveler, I think my journey is done. I'll be around the anomaly, like a second Oceanus, ready to battle but nothing more.

Any rhyme or reason to Corvette teleports? [Question]

I'm currently working on my perfect Corvette, and one last thing keeps messing with me: where you teleport to on the Corvette when you use the teleport feature. I know it takes you to one of the hatches, I have one in back and a Thunderbird one up in front, but I haven't figured out a way to reliably change this teleport location.

Originally, I would always teleport right at the front hatch. All good. On my next rebuild, I would get teleported to the back hatch. No good. Now, I get teleported to the front hatch... facing backwards. I don't want to have to turn around every time I want to pilot my ship.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there some method to change this easily?

This error is the most revolutionary and fun one I’ve ever had. [Bug]

I made a little friend in the anomaly, and he took me to his planet in his ship, but when we arrived, my perspective was pretty strange.

My character was both in first person and third person at the same time, which completely blew my mind, especially because it actually felt really nice. Have you ever seen a game with both perspectives at once? Maybe bugs like this could create new ways to play.

All I know is I loved it, and I’m grateful to that random in the anomaly who kidnapped me with his shield, it was pretty fun.

Is this just not as uncommon as I thought or am I just an idiot? [Question]

tl;dr - Finding the Dreadnought was way easier than anything else I've tried to achieve in this game, is this actually not that hard or am I this lucky and this unlucky at the same time?

I spent the last day researching freighters because I saw somewhere that my first one is free and wanted to make the best decision I could so I decided I wanted a Korvax crew in a Resurgent Venator, I also saw that Pirate Dreadnoughts were cool but they required me to have a normal freighter first so I didn't pay any attention to it, must be very hard to get them anyway so I won't even bother (forewhadowing).

Then I looked into the save loop to farm an S Class Capital Freighter and just could not make it work, I spent like 5 hours trying to understand why it wasn't working until I saw someone commenting that recently the loop being done with a Corvette (scanning at the start of the battle rather than after it) was patched because the battle disappears when you leave the seat (I think it makes sense and it's fair to require the player to at least complete the battle before looking into the ship class), during that I also messed up my saves and finished the Ship Rescue event so I had to wait 3 more hours before I could do it again, in the meantime I looked into a ship to replace my Corvette and thought Interceptors were really cool so during those 3 hours I tried looking for one I liked, which I did but it was only B class, but thought it was fine because I saw I could just upgrade it later, so I only paid attention to the visuals.

Then after the 3 hours and 5 jumps I got the event again and started the proper loop, which worked but it took me more than 20 restarts to get my Venator to roll an S Class, that plus me being terrible at the battle and hitting the ship multiple times invalidating some attempts basically meant it took me almost the rest of the day,...

How long was it before you scrapped scrapping? [Question]

Waste material,waste of time. I spent that time and effort to go scrap metal collecting and gave up after ten minutes. Not only is collecting it and taking it to and sorting it at the plant time consuming, you cant take much and it falls out! Then when you do get back with whats now down to a couple of shopping trolleys a stolen moped and a bag of beer cans your rewarded with peanuts. They need sort the transport of it out, so once its on the truck don’t give a fuck and pay decent spondoolies. I mean why does it fall out?! I reckon you’d be better off walking it.

I have come to notice that a lot of players use the pirate capitol ship. But I dont really understand why? I had the oppertunity to get one as well but I decided to blow up that filthy pirate ship (I did get the fregats tho). I do understand why it looks cool and I also think that it kind of is a trophy, because you had to fight for it. In my opinion the 'normal' ships are way cooler but that is just my opinion. The last 3 slides are my last 3 ships that I had ( I am relatively new to the game). They fit in more with my style.

Corvette Crew [Suggestion]

Something that I just thought of right this moment and maybe it is a missed opportunity that HG had not thought of. For bases we have the NPCs at the stations to learn crafting and all that. Could there be an NPC sitting at the mission radar or the medical station? Don’t even care if they do anything. Just something to add some life to a big ship with nothing in it.

I got freighters - they´re multiplying [Bug]

Bug report is on its way (and I wasnt sure if screenshot or bug tag was right as Im not asking for help, just sharing pics) I just also found it somewhat hilarious. The one on the left in the first pic is my actual freighter, the others are imposters. And the weird gravity luckily is on one of the imposters, I was curious if it was possible to land on it. Normal freighter is fine.

Corvette hab units not connecting? [Question]

I think I am experiencing it mostly with trying to connect Titan and Thunderbird hab units... but not everything is doing it...

I just want to know if I'm crazy and like it is intentional certain units don't connect? But... that hasn't been the case since Corvettes were released?

Rebuilding doesn't help, I'll still get a hab units or 2 that doesn't connect properly and create doors between them. It shows they habe connected in build mode, though.

It is a constant issue I've had across 2 (separate) corvettes, both of which ive tried rebuilt multiple times.

Anyone else having this issue? Anyone know how to fix it?

Am I silly for being a loyal freighter captain and keeping the first freighter I found? [Question]

This might be a very silly question and might show some of my mentality, but when I started playing the game, I eventually got my first freighter which I really, really wanted, because what new player wouldn’t want a “mobile base”, this was by the way years before Corvettes were a thing.

My freighter looks a bit goofy, it is basically a cargo ship (or a freighter) and not an opposing battle ship, which doesn’t really bother me as I have some very good “combat” Frigates in my fleet which I send both on combat patrols and to escort other ships on other missions.

But after seeing some very cool freighters and having the Units one has after approximately 1000 hours, I’m kind of wondering if I’m being silly and sentimental over my freighter?

What happens if you trade in your freighter for another one, do you lose the technology you have unlocked?

I made a simple refiner recipe website for players! [Screenshot]

Hello Travellers,

I’ve been deep into the game lately, but I noticed that refiner recipes can be a bit hard to find or memorize quickly. I decided to build a small, simple website for players to visit and test out recipes in a clean, terminal-style interface: nmsrefiner.site.

It is a very early version of the site, so you might encounter some bugs or outdated info. It’s just a start, but I’m planning to keep updating it. Any feedback (good or bad!) would be greatly appreciated.

I hope you check it out and find it helpful during your expeditions. Thank you in advance for the support!

Planetary Base-Building Wish List [Suggestion]

I've made some fun bases on a couple of worlds, and I thought I'd put together a "wish list" of features that would let me make cooler places. But maybe I'm off-base on some of them, or they already exist in an alternate form. So before I go filing a bunch of feature requests, I thought I'd put my list out for discussion. Did I miss anything?

Base-building wish list: Snappable interfaces between prefabs, cubes, and each kind of material construction components. One "linking" part for side-to-side, and one for top-to-bottom, to allow me to flow one type of base into another. Terrain stays clear one room-height over floors, cubes, or prefabs if you place them inside terrain. (I don't care if manually-cleared stone regenerates at some point, but let me create basements or underground lairs using floors/cubes/prefabs, and enforce that the ground cleared by the parts themselves stay clear. We already have a part limit so this shouldn't get crazy.) Landing pads can snap to something/each other to easily place two of them at a base. (Ideally, let them snap to floors, so I can create stairs off them easily.) Prefab Foundation and Cuboid Struts be snappable to landing pads, floors, and other horizontal surfaces, so I can easily create things that look like they're supported and not just floating. The "garage door" wall parts be big enough/resizable for the smaller exocrafts to use. Prefab ladders along walls instead of just in the center Add the ability to reposition something wired up without breaking all wires Fix difficulty to snap certain pieces into already-created areas which should fit (sloping stone roof gable in both directions, floor panels sometimes, archways when near small stone walls). This gets especially frustrating with quarter-height things like low walls nearby, which seem to block some snapping possibilities they shouldn't. Offer a way to explicitly move a part...

#

How do I resize objects beyond the limit? [Question]

I want to be able to resize any object to use for decoration but the game only allows me to do so up to a point before it stops growing/shrinking, I'm not talking about the non resizable objects but all of them.
I tried looking both for mods and glitches but I just got lost and ended up with nothing but a headache.
Can any of you help me here?

Can't Find my ship No Man's Sky (Spoiler) [Spoiler]

Hey everyone, I really need some advice.

I just finished the “Purge” mission in No Man’s Sky and reset the universe. As expected, my ship got completely wrecked. I managed to repair only one component before running out of repair kits.

Here’s where things went wrong: I left my ship on a planet, thinking it would be easy to find later (like it being marked or highlighted somehow). I do remember which planet it’s on, but I have absolutely no idea where exactly I left it.

I flew to a space station and then to the Anomaly to look for repair kits, and I actually found some. But now I can’t find my ship anymore. I’ve read that you can summon your ship at the Anomaly, but it doesn’t work for me — it says the ship has critical damage and can’t be summoned (which makes sense since I barely repaired anything).

Is there any way to locate or recover my ship? I had a lot of valuable resources stored in it, and I really don’t want to lose everything.

Any tips or workarounds would be greatly appreciated

Found extinct animal whilst trying to hunt down a common flyer, still cant find flyer [Screenshot]

Did not know this could happen, though also slightly annoyed that I cant view it in codex. Was super stoked initially since Ive spend the last 3-4 hours trying to find the last scan, a common flying fauna (bear in mind that the other flyers are uncommon and I see them around all the time), turns out it was an extinct one so I cant even claim the completed collection.

New (?) extremely effective dupe glitch [Information]

I’m calling it new because I’ve searched for a long time to see if it had been documented anywhere else, but couldn’t find anything. If it’s been documented before then please let me know

Step 1: locate someone who will sell you their ship. It can be a freighter, a spacecraft at a trade post or a one at a space station. Any will do.

Step 2: put whatever you want to duplicate into your spacecraft/freighter/corvette inventory. It can be literally anything from corvette parts to copper, as long as it can be placed into your ships inventory it’s fair game (quest items and items that can’t stack can also be duplicated)

Step 3: select “make an offer” and then “negotiate price”. Then go to your ships inventory (where it asks you to move your cargo to the new ship)

Step 4: quick move the item(s) you want to duplicate into the other ship. (Your stuff will disappear from your ships inventory like normal)

Step 5: either back out of the menu or hit the decline button

Step 6: enjoy your gross stacks of units, resources AND nanites (you can duplicate suspicious goods from the pirate dealers to make a ridiculous amount of nanites)

You’ll want to use this with something that has a maxed out cargo storage as it is much more effective.

If this is a new glitch then I wonder how many people have accidentally stumbled across it like I did when I first discovered it. Have fun with your billions and billions of units!

Designed within a technocratic culture that values precision and restraint, it serves as the state’s “armoured limousine”: discreet, heavily protected, and infused with exotic quicksilver technology. Its presence reflects not personal prestige, but the quiet, steady movement of those entrusted with the nation’s most sensitive responsibilities.

Three Noob questions [Question]

Hi all, just bought the game for the PS5... loving my experience so far as it does a great job of scratching that scavenger itch. But I have two questions... and again: please keep in mind that I have only played the game for 12/15 hours

First, how important is it to leave your planet and discover new worlds? So far, I have left the planet a few times to go to a space station and some other stuff... but in my travels, I generally come back to the first one, as I have a teleporter in my base... I am still finding a lot of cool stuff... yesterday I found two wrecks and some new spots to sell stuff and expanded my storage in my suit. But do planets ever run out of stuff? Is there some sort of progress bar that fills up and once it does, I know I can go to another planet?

Second, how important are languages? I like this concept in the game so I have tried to learn as much as possible (I think 35 words?) but is it something that I should be doing or are there other more important things?

Third, where do I get an Atlas Pass? It seems like I fly halfway across a planet, and all I can loot from the boxes are ammo, because the other ones are locked and I need an Atlas Pass to open it?

Thanks in advance

Corvettes Keep Getting Deleted? [Bug]

Just wondering if anyone else has this issue or if its a large sweeping bug, I've made two corvettes. Each time, I flew them around, planet hopped, saving multiple times then logged out after a fresh save. When I log back in, it says my parts were refunded into the cache inventory (they werent) and I don't have a current corvette design anymore. I considered it a fluke the first time and made damn sure I had plenty of saves the second time only for it to happen the exact same way again.

I lose all corvette parts each time (not a huge deal since I use basic parts) but the effort is completely lost which sucks and it feels like I don't have access to the corvette system which I was pretty excited about. Anyone else in the same boat? If so is there a fix out there? Thanks all!

Xeno Arena PvP and Tournaments? [Discussion]

Xeno Arena is very interesting because it's a foundation for PvP in the game, which until now hasn't had much of that in depth. I really liked the battle system, but so far I feel frustrated having to go to the Anomaly and be patient to find players willing to battle. I feel that a system is missing that could increase PvP in Xeno Arena. It's sad to go to the Anomaly and only see two arenas and have to wait for someone to appear, just for a friendly battle, without ranking or anything. Will there be something in the future that encourages people to seek PvP battles or some kind of match organization? Tournaments? What do you think will be included and what could be improved?

if Hello Games drops PS4 support my PS4 disk for my PS5 version will still work, right? [Discussion]

Intuitively I know I have nothing to worry about but I want to compare notes.

I had NMS on PS4 originally using a disk. Then when I upgraded to PS5 I put my PS4 disk into my new console and was able to get the PS5 version. Awesome!

Now that there's some chatter that Hello Games might drop Switch, XBox One and PS4 support I'm just a little concerned that me putting my disk into my PS5 (which is required to run the game) might result in a warning that tells me this version is no longer supported someday.

That's not going to happen right? My disk is merely a key to unlock the PS5 version and the PS5 version will still be playable for the forseeable future.

Right?

Hear me out: launching fighters from the top of your corvette would complete it’s functionality as a mobile base [Suggestion]

Imagine having an access hatch on the ceiling that if you looked up/focused on, you could warp directly into your fighter, and then when you were done flying around, you could land back on a landing pad on top, then warp back into your corvette.

Was hunting paradise planets, found a whole fleet of ghost dreadnoughts instead [Bug]

I was jumping system to system looking for a paradise planet using my freighter like usual.

Then I warped into one system and went out to check a nearby planet… and immediately noticed something crazy.

There were multiple pirate dreadnoughts just floating in space right beside my freighter, just scattered around near my ship.

And I mean a LOT of them.

The weird (but awesome) part: I’m using a pirate dreadnought as my freighter I can’t damage any of them at all But they have collision, so I can literally fly into them and crash No reactions, no combat, they just sit there like ghost copies

It honestly feels like my freighter got duplicated multiple times or something bugged out with spawning.

But not gonna lie… I was actually hyped the whole time 😂
Seeing that many dreadnoughts just chilling beside my freighter looked INSANE. Felt like I had my own pirate fleet out of nowhere.

I spent a good while just flying around them and enjoying it.

Has anyone else experienced this?
Is this a known bug or did I just hit something super rare?

More than six months of searching, only for a wild RED one to land on my home planet for FIRST TIME!!! [Screenshot]

Well, it finally happened.

Earlier, I mentioned my struggle to find one of the rarest starships in No Man’s Sky. After over six months of consistent gameplay, I finally stumbled upon an Exotic in the wild.

However, it wasn’t an easy feat. I initially decided to give up and search for the Exotic on the Coordinate Exchange. But what happened next blew my mind!

I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky since October 2025 and streaming my adventures on Twitch. Throughout my journey, my inventory and hangar have grown, and my squadron has become quite formidable. A garage filled with beautiful ships would perfectly complement my future endeavors among the stars.

It took me a few weeks to analyze the responses to my previous thread. Some players found an Exotic in the wild, while others, who had been playing for years, had only encountered this ship once. I expressed both my fascination and frustration with this quest so far.

Finally, I decided to take action. I visited the NMS Coordinate Exchange for the first time. Navigating through the platform was a bit challenging, but I eventually found their Reddit page. This page serves as a hub where players share their discoveries and contribute locations to the community. I didn’t have a specific color preference, but if I could choose, I’d prefer a neutral color like Black or Gray. After a few unsuccessful searches, I finally found a promising lead. It was an infested planet buried in a glitch build left behind by a griefer long ago. I followed the link to a shadowy-gray variant in a distant system in Euclid. The jump was quick, but the discovery was equally significant. As I landed at a local trading post, the misty gristle-gray spacecraft...

Can't see my own comm ball [Question]

However my comm ball is nowhere to be seen, no icon showing where it is or anything. What's going on, why doesn't my comm ball act like everyone else's and be visible from orbit? Multiplayer is on fwiw, and after I dropped the ball I saved and uploaded my save if that matters.

Broken marker positions / markers changing place to space [Bug]

Had a weird bug with quest markers and navigation data route markers.

1st one happened when approaching a Distress Beacon marker, I was 5 seconds from one, on planet surface (it was for a ship to be salvaged), the marker disappeared from my view and to my surprise suddenly happened to be placed off planet surface. I flew there and I noticed the ship didn't want to snap on the marker so I flew past it, when I turned around and approached it just holding the regular thruster I bounced off something invisible, taking damage.

2nd one happened to me when I tried to do the base-building-tutorial Vy'keen mission to destroy a Sentinel facility or whatever it's called. This time I've got to the place, destroyed it, got out but the marker persisted so again I got close and it disappeared. This time I had the ship's reticle right on it and I was in the planet atmoshphere so I got to the destination no problem but it turned out it pointed to nowhere in particular and the place that marker moved was the same as with the Distress Beacon. When I got to it I bumped into something invisible too.

At this point the game became unplayable for me. I'm wondering if anyone had this happen to them and if they handled it in any way?

Can VR get some hot fix love? [Question]

I am an absolute huge fan of this game for quite some time. Played it a bit of release but really jumped in about five years ago. Last year I made the jump to the psvr2 and have only fallen more in love with this wonderful game. That being said every update brings a little more jank and glitch to the vr experience. I could give a hefty list of different glitches and odd issues, I have reported them. I really think it would do wonders if we could get a small hot fix update just for the vr experience. It really is one of the most fleshed out experiences in vr but just a little love could go a long way.

Exotic Ship Farm [Screenshot]

I've moved away from waiting in space stations for a good class of ship I like to show up. Going the nearest trade station on planet seeing higher traffic. On this planet I followed a solar ship to the trade station, waited and found a few different varieties of colors and shapes show up. Got one like my plain yellow boring one in black and orange. Couldn't see better than a C class show up. Had good super slot placement when upgraded, so worked out.

Then...another exotic landed. Being newish to the game, not sure what they are called. The fancy ones that's basically a ball with different wing types etc.

2nd Freighter Bug [Bug]

I'm terrified to go inside because I don't want to corrupt my save file - has anyone been brave enough to enter their 2nd bug freighter?

I warped via black hole to a new system only to see my freighter already here, but with no frigates. Called mine in to make sure it's still there, flew in, landed/ saved and now I'm just curious if this has happened to anyone else?

I landed inside, but there were no starships, and I was afraid to get out inside as it would overwrite my Restore Point.

Unable to progress in "Alone Amidst the Stars [Bug]

Hello, this quest has been giving me trouble with literally every step. Originally, the first locator didn't spawn in, and I tried every single fix I found until I eventually got it after an hour or so. After that, I was able to place two of the scanners down, but after the second, it just became a random marker in the middle of nowhere of space with really no planets around. I have no clue what to do; this mission has been SO much trouble, omg. idk if I'm being dumb or not, but I'm really confused (I'm VERY new to the game)

Help with Terraforming [Question]

Im planning on expanding the little body of water so that it fills most of the island, leaving a strip of land around thats about the width of 2 landing pads. (If terraform limit lets me)

How ever what would be the most efficient way to do so? Just manually dig it out or would a ship cannon do it better, if so which one?

Suggestions and ideas appreciated!

Solution for the 32-bit Unit Cap: Implementing a "Macro/Micro" Currency System [Suggestion]

Dear Hello Games Team,

As a long-term player with an extensive fleet and industrial infrastructure, I frequently encounter the 32-bit integer cap (4,294,967,295 Units). Currently, any profit beyond this limit is lost, which breaks immersion for "Galactic Tycoon" style gameplay.

I would like to propose a "Zero-Footprint" solution that expands the economy without requiring a risky overhaul of the legacy 32-bit code: The Concept: The "Macro" Currency System

Instead of switching to 64-bit, implement a secondary 32-bit counter that acts as a "Carry-Over" register—similar to how Euros and Cents work. Units (The "Cent"): Your existing 32-bit integer. Macros (The "Euro"): A new 32-bit integer that increments by 1 every time the Units counter hits the overflow limit. Technical Implementation: Logic: When a transaction would push Units above the max value, the code simply increments the Macro counter and resets the Units to the remainder. Formula: 1 Macro = 4,294,967,295 Units. UI Integration: The display remains clean and intuitive. For example: "12 Macros : 300,000,000 Units". Safety: This prevents the "Integer Overflow" (where money resets to zero or goes negative) while allowing the player's wealth to scale infinitely into the trillions. Legacy Support: Existing save files remain compatible. The "Macro" variable starts at 0 for everyone and only activates once a player reaches the cap. Why this works for NMS:

It respects the current game architecture while providing a massive quality-of-life improvement for endgame players. It turns a technical limitation into a new "Prestige" layer of the economy.

Thank you for your incredible work on the universe. I hope to see the economy grow as vast as the stars themselves!

Best regards, Azu

Question for Switch 2 players after the Pokemon update... [Question]

BASE BUILDING/TERRAIN REGEN IS BROKEN [Bug]

I have this home base on a paradise planet that I made it into a cozy port town kinda deal and had it set up across the river from one of my settlements, even built a little stone bridge connecting the lands. Next to my base is this massive crater which is what's special about this planet is that there's tons of craters. It took me TWO DAYS to flatten and delete this crater to where I can build houses and other buildings. Well today, I spawn into this base after not playing NMS for about 3 days and the crater that I flattened has half returned. So I flatten it again and continue to explore more of my paradise planet. I return back to this same base to exchange somethings and the land has half regenerated again and I flatten again! This happens a few more times. After a few autophage missions, I return back to the same home base and the crater, HASN'T JUST REGENERATED FULLY, BUT HAS NOW SWALLOWED MORE THAN THREE QUARTERS OF MY ENTIRE BASE!!!! EVERYTHING IS IN THE CRATER!! ALL OF THIS HAPPENED IN THE SPAN OF 2 HOURS TODAY!! I know that if you haven't used a home base in a hot minute, the terrain regenerates, but I am ALWAYS editing this base. Always adding, removing, terra forming, EVERYTHING to this base!! Please tell me someone else has ran into the same problem! I cannot be the only one!

Playing in VR... [Discussion]

I’ve realized lately that I’m playing two completely different games depending if flat or vr.

When I’m playing on a flat screen, I’m a "gamer." I’m checking off milestones, grinding through quests, and managing my inventory.

I’ve almost caught up to my old Xbox progression, and honestly, it’s great. There is so much content and so many new mechanics I haven't even touched yet. On the screen, I’m playing the game

But then... In VR

Suddenly, the "game" vanishes. I don’t care about my quest log or my efficiency. I can spend an entire three-hour session on a single planet, just walking. I find myself scanning plants, tracking local wildlife into deep caves, and standing perfectly still, paralyzed by the sheer scale of it all.

There is something hauntingly beautiful about being a tiny, insignificant speck in a vast universe generated by an algorithm.

Today, I landed on a world that actually gave me vertigo. It was so massive, so imposing, and it made me feel so small that I actually had to leave the planet sooner than I planned. It was overwhelming in the best way possible.

An hour in VR gives me a dose of immersion that no other medium can touch. I might not be "progressing" as fast as I do on my TV, but I’m living it.

I just adore this game for giving us that feeling.

Help ): (NMS constant crash after download) [Bug]

First post on reddit, unsure if I'm doing this right but here goes.

I first downloaded NMS on steam because I love spec. bio games and loved the idea of exploration/aliens/ship building. Booted it up just to be met with a pure white screen right after the first space-themed loading screen and titlecard. I get two different crash messages: one warning of a "vulkan initialization failure" and the other being a "hang" (crash i assume. I can add screenshots if needed). It often says that my graphics card doesn't have enough memory to support the game. This has happened every single time no matter what I do. I have 50 minutes logged in the game simply with me trying to fix the problem while I'm stuck in the main menu.

I've spent HOURS trying to troubleshoot this out of desperation, youtube's not helping by showing me constant videos of ppl having fun in this game. I really want it and am holding off a refund because I want to see if there's a workaround (or if this is something that'll get patched after the xeno arena update). I've searched around forums (mostly here), and watched very detailed youtube videos in order to see if I can get the game to actually launch. It seems as if the error occurs right as it's trying to load in the first world.

Of note: the space launch screen lags a lot beforehand and the game freaks out if I try to tab out while in the main menu, often freezing for quite a bit.

I feel like I've tried everything. Restarting computer, verifying game files, restarting steam, reinstalling the game, trying to update my graphics card (it says it's fully updated, AMD Radeon. Unsure about anything more specific than that, I can't get it to tell me anything more about the graphics card than it being AMD Radeaon. maybe im dumb?), deleting the tkgraphicssettings file on steam for it to reload, launching it in dx11/dx12, turning down every single...

Frostfathom Harbor [Screenshot]

Found a really cool horseshoe-shaped land mass on an ocean planet, with a small peninsula about halfway across. I decided to build a little "harbor" mini-base there. It's MOSTLY sheltered from the largest waves, but if you're bold, go get your Nautilon (the bay for it is at the end of the dock underwater) and leave the harbor bay. Ocean planet waves are no joke. As a sidenote, there's a pretty amazing amount of alpine terrain heading north and west, considering this is a tidal planet.

Thoughts on base design [Question]

Does this base look any good, or is it trasd? Ive spent so long on it thay i think i have lost my objectivity. Ibwas going for a Bladerunner-esque structure, hugging the hillside but i dont think i like it, just canot tell at this point.

After 600 hours I finally decided to make my way to Eissentam, and landed on a paradise planet, blue skies, green grass. So I thought I would make a big base with some architectural features. I usually like my designs, will often plan them on paper first, but this one was a bit more organic, albeit with the Bladerunner idea in my head.

Tl;dr I cannot tell if this design is rubbish or not. Do you like the aesthetics of it? Please come visit.

Iteration: Oceanus - Why they settled in the Space Anomaly [Screenshot]

I can battle Oceanus in a training battle, and also the daily challenges, but I noticed that when beating an NPC in a Challenger's invitation or Champion's invitation, you should get a prompt in the bottom right hand corner that says "Victory! Return to Oceanus" or "Return to Oceanus on the Space Anomaly" or words to that effect. I saw someone do that on YouTube and there was an option to "Ask why they settled here". I don't see any of these prompts or options. I don't mind so much. I just want to know what Oceanus says in response to selecting the option in the screenshot, which I got from watching a YouTube gamer, "Ask why they settled here" as I can't ask Oceanus myself.

System not showing in Discovery tab [Bug]

I'm new to the game and still in the stage of poking around nearby stars to where I spawned while following the story quests.

One of the systems I've been exploring, I've noticed does not show up in the Discovery tab.

I did get the cutscenes when arriving in the system and when visiting planets. I've visited the space station and multiple planets. I've landed on structures with landing pads like the trade hubs and outposts. I set down a base computer on one of the planets. My ship is just the Radiant Pillar fighter starting ship.

I can teleport to the station or base there normally.

However, if I pull up the discovery screen while in the system, it shows a different recently visited system instead. It does not show in the list of recent systems. When I am on a planet, I can view the flora, fauna and minerals I've discovered, but the sidebar that shows the planet info isn't there.

Is this a normal bug and is there a way to fix this issue?

Hello Games has really opened up a Pandora's Box of things they could do with the new companion battles and fauna collecting. [Discussion]

Just off the top of my head:

Rare translucent variants of every fauna in the game like the striders where you can see their organs. People would lose their minds looking for them all over planets and seeing them in the arena would be quite the spectacle.

Larger-scale arena in the Anomaly, tournament-style. Maybe even a schematic to build the smaller tables in our bases. The tournament could go in that big space where the stairs go next to the companion battle tables.

Better animal husbandry to breed specific traits and stats via the automated feeders and collectors. Static herds as well. Like, the game could tag animals fed by automated feeders as being static so they wouldn't despawn. A gestator tech that pops out fauna of only the egg you've placed in could work.

Different food types to catch the untameable companions like the flyers, swimmers, and the ones that burrow? I just want to catch them the legit way.

Tag team battles, etc.

A myriad of ways to open this update up. I am really loving it and hoping for more later on.

Please ignore the frame drops and the quality NMS is incredibly demanding in VR, and recording from the quest only captures one eye, so it doesn't quite do the depth justice.

But I really wanted to show this to those of you who haven't tried VR yet, just so you can get a glimpse of the immersion.

I’m just walking along, taking it all in, when I come across what looks like a simple hole in the ground. On a flat screen, you’d just jump over it or jetpack down without a second thought. But in the headset? It turned out to be this immense, yawning cavity.

The sudden drop in scale gave me genuine vertigo. Standing there, on the edge of this massive abyss in the middle of nowhere, I felt this overwhelming mix of fear and intrigue. You truly feel like a tiny speck in a mysterious, uncaring universe.

What nitpicks you have about the UX of the game? [Suggestion]

I think after all these years, these stuff still bug me. - Toggling 1/3rd person shouldn't be different hotkeys when on ship/on foot; some games are event something you scroll into/from which is the intuitive way for me. - Switching multi-tool should be intuitive, rather than hidden on the quick menu, inside the inventory would be great, so you could easily compare them. (same goes to ships). - Moving stuff between ships/backpack is tedious. (not to mention the fragmented slots which make no sense to me). Maybe a split screen like when you are interacting with a storage would be great. - Spinning things! Why do they spring back to the original position? It's so annoying, if you want to look behind your multitool, or behind the ship, you have to keep spinning so it stays somewhat in place.

Is there a reason they are like this?

Mr Sean, friend! The scent of gratitude fills the air! Warm trade winds and full pockets — a good day for us both, yes? Units flow, smiles grow!

I started playing this game about two days ago and so far I like how intuitive the interface is and the exploration part. But after maybe 15h in, I checked a YouTube tutorial for beginners someone recommended on Reddit and though it was 90 minutes, I found myself skipping forward all of it because it had nothing new after 10-15h of gameplay.

So far I've only been to the Space station once and found the coordinates for the cargo ship of the early missions, and while I do like the running around and exploring, I gotta say, it's starting to feel a bit grindy: I know it's normal when at the beginning you want to buy something (space station) and you realize you need a lot more "coin" than you have, but learning the language by approaching every alien just once got annoying quick and running around a lot using the scanner to find buried caches that give you one single point for blueprints (that cost like 5 points for a damned corner roof) is starting to feel very grindy. Does it get better?

Thanks for the help.

Discovered another players base in a spot that I didn’t know was already occupied, while I was in abandoned mode. Report or leave? [Question]

I’m playing in abandoned mode and found a great spot to put a base, and I did, with no problem. It was only when I was searching the area for a mineral deposit that I got the message that I couldn’t edit terrain, that I discovered some other player had a base (just a base computer from what I can see) in the same general spot.

Its very likely they were there first. I know I can ‘report’ their base and it will disappear for me, but I’d rather not do that of there are any consequences for the other player, because they haven’t done anything wrong, and they were there first.

I could just go somewhere else, but it’s truly a great spot and I’d like to keep it if reporting the other players base causes no harm or inconvenience to them.

What should I do? Report it, or find another spot?

Mission Help [Question]

Im doing the Distressed Sentinel Interceptor mission and can't seem to find a way to figure this out. For the last day and a half I've been grinding to build a ton of warp drives (usually 12-16 at a time), and then restart that process to keep going, just to keep jumping to get to the end of this, but everytime it looks close the map shifts and looks like i have another 30 jumps ahead of me. Am I doing something wrong or just unlucky? Any help to finish this off would be greatly appreciated.

(potential spoilers for Worlds Pt. 2 content) Probably my favorite base I've made (and it's still unfinished). [Video]

Welcome to Slowking's Crown Jewel! I started making this base pretty much when the Worlds Pt. 2 update came out, but I didn't really think to document it until some improvements to my mental health (chronic burnout that was a lot worse last year, long story), because now I'm taking a lot more joy in the view. I forgot to add the coordinates to the video, but I might put them in the comments.

Stuck with settlement [Question]

For context, I've completed most of the missions in the game, including "A Trace of Metal."

I also have 2 other settlements, one is a normal settlement and the other is an autophage settlement.

However, every time I try to retire as overseer, it tells me "Cannot retire yet, complete settlement objectives."

I don't have anything building, no disputes, no requests, etc. Just the side mission which I'm wondering if that has anything to do with being until to retire? Of course you can't abandon those side missions, so I doubt it?

Can't play with wifi turned off now? [Bug]

I bought the game last week and installed it on my switch 2. Worked great. I left for vacation and was able to play it just fine with airplane mode turned on. This morning I go to play and it says there's up an update which is weird because it was still on airplane mode. I installed it and I turn it on and it's the Xena one. And now whenever I try to play it stops every 5 seconds demanding I connect to the Internet when it was just fine not being connected the last week. Is there is a way to force offline mode?

Hiding on corvettes [Information]

Lately I’ve been hiding on corvettes to see where players will take me but doing this surprisingly I’ve found some of the coolest planets and players this way. And even got taken to the odyalutai galaxy which I just figured out is a hidden galaxy they you can’t get to normally which is super cool. And the guy sat and watched me build my bases in the new galaxy and explored with me and even gave me the most insane creature eggs. Just wanted to recommend people try this because it’s honestly lot of fun and cool to see where you will end up.

Why is every single attack missing in champion battles [Question]

I just counted, 7 moves in a row my attack missed 😭 Putting 0% chance to miss is pretty misleading when I cant hit the champions creatures.

I dont know how, because my creatures are all also high stats s class lvl30, and even my smallest creatures dont have the opponant miss as much as I do.

XENO ARENA TOURNAMENTS - XMC LEAGUE [Discussion]

Here ye, here ye travelers!

With the recent Xeno Arena additions in No Man’s Sky, I’m wanting to create a community-run tournament system to crown a Xenomon Masters Champion (XMC). No prizes as of yet but that's fine you'll have bragging rights and a whole bunch of groupies or something like that, I totally promise.

FORMAT:

  • 16–32 players per tournament (to start)

  • Bracket style (groups → winners advance → final)

  • Matches held at the Space Anomaly / Nexus

LEAGUES (by class):

  • S-Class – Elite League

  • A-Class – Adventurer League

  • C-Class – Starter League

Tournaments would rotate monthly between leagues (so everyone gets a fair shot depending on where they’re at). S month one - A month two - C month 3, then repeat as a 3 month cycle.

GOAL:

If this works, we scale it up with a higher volume of participants at a time, in a distant time and space prizes beyond a title eventually and possibly make this an Official League one day.

I’ll handle most of the organizing, but I’ll likely need help setting up a Discord for match coordination and streaming fights.


If this sounds like something you’d:

  • Join

  • Help organize

  • Or just watch for the hell of it

Drop a comment, question or additional ideas on what'd you do to make an idea like this pop 👍.

Live Long And No Man's Sky.

🖖

---- Disclaimer:

This is just a brainstorm idea of what could be sometime soon so nothing is concrete as of yet

-The first tournament will run once we hit 16 confirmed players. (32 is more ideal but will go as low as 8 if that's all we can get lol)

-To be very clear if you want to be a participant just comment that below and you will be DM'd to follow up and to add you to the discord once that's figured out

-If you'd like to be a part of the Community Team lmk and it'll be a...

Must Share: NMS in the Most Unlikely of Places? [NMS-IRL]

Fellow Interloper Travellers and Sentinel Slayers …

A nurse friend of mine who works in a retirement home, with residents who range in age from 50 to 102, came to visit me for a bit last night. I was playing NMS when she waltzed in (she has a key to my warehouse) and saw what was on my big screen and said. ‘Oh! You play No Man’s Sky!’)

I was slightly surprised she recognized this because she’s about as far from a gamer as one could get, really. ‘Yes, I am’, I replied ‘You don’t play do you? I didn’t even know you had a PC or a game box.’

‘I don’t,’ she said. ‘But the residents at the Home I work at do. And every single night they gather around the television to take turns playing and making their ‘dream space homes’ on different planets.’

‘You should see some of the creations they come up with! Keeps their minds sharp! They play as an entire group helping each other with gardens and such. If they can’t plant real ones anymore they are happy to plant ones that theoretically will never die.’

I was surprised. I was a little shocked. But eventually a big ole’ tear escaped from one eyeball.

‘That’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard about video games in my whole life. Ever.’

Had to share, my amazing friends. I love that story.

So Im finally giving the game a proper play. How should I go about the story? [Question]

Hey guys, so I have played the game a fair amount about 6 years ago, but I didn't have much time to give it so I didn't really played it as much as I wanted. And now, with even more and more updates on top of what was there before, I really wanted to give it a go, so finally I'm seriously playing it.

My question is about how to go about the story. I'm a bit of a completionist and I like to clear quests out of my log, so having main mission's active there is an itch that i need to scratch. But I know that getting to the center of the galaxy or finishing the Atlas story does kind of reset progress at the end and sends me to another galaxy right? So I would like to ask... how do I go about that? Can the Artemis and the Space Anomaly stories be finished? and does jumping to another galaxy reset them? or does that remain completed?

I imagine at least the Atlas storyline resets when you jump, so I feel maybe I should get till the end of that storyline but not finish it if I want to keep my story progress... Can you guys shed some light on that? Thanks!

Low Gravity Capture the Flag [Discussion]

First post!

I'm in the process of building a capture the flag arena on a low gravity planet. My basic plan is to create a ton of floating platforms at various heights. The gravity is such that you can effectively "swim" through the atmosphere with your jet pack. On the top platform super high up there will be teleporter that takes you to a sealed glass room with the flag(s) inside. Then you port back to the high platform and skydive to your team's base to drop the flag. Rinse and repeat. I'm also thinking about making a low Gravity basketball court. I had so much fun swimming around collecting mineral deposits and stuff while trying to avoid landing. Looking for more inspiration or ideas around how to utilize this mechanic.

Question: if I build out something like ossified stars for flags, and disable the base building option will people be able to craft them and cheat? What if we change the rare glitch item that we are using as a flag every game and don't announce it so people can't prepare a bunch ahead of time?

Not my own creation, thought id recommend it though if someone is looking for a star wars ship, ive tried a few xwings but none have good first person veiw when flying.

This ship is so satisfying, working power hatch, room to decorate interior a bit. Could not recommend it more if you want something small and star wars.

Question about save files [Question]

I played like 8 hours of the game in 2024 and I don't remember much of the controls or what to do. If I start a new game, will I still get my twitch drops or only one per save? (Also does the game have any "do the tutorial" again thing to help?)

Check all the ship docks after boarding a civilian freighter to get your reward [Suggestion]

I just learned that a systems exotic ship can actually spawn inside the civilian freighter that you help when you warp to another system. Once you defeat the pirates and board to get the reward from the captian. so really I just felt like posting a reminder to take a look because I didn’t know they could!

Just take a quick look around before teleporting to the bridge, there are 9 docking bays, you can also check if they are S class if you are ship hunting, but I'm sure we all know that.

The red one is the one I found. This is also an excuse to say that Ive gotten pretty lucky with all 4 of my exotics because Ive randomly encountered each one, never spent any time looking for any of them.

Greatest Ship: Radiant Pillar [Discussion]

You might as well stick with the Radiant Pillar for the duration because the only reason to get one of the fancy ships is to show it off in the Anomaly. That's not a very good reason to grind out hrs and days on the game. However ship envy has made me get a couple of interceptors (at least it's a mission right?) but never a living ship.

Is it any different than the guys with the fancy expensive sports cars that still have to drive within the same limits your old beat up car is under. It's just to make others envious. And that's an empty feeling after an initial rush.

NMS is the epitome of just collecting stuff for no real reason and building wealth with nothing to spend it on, and trying to find that Goldilocks planet but always finding one little thing about it that's not perfect. So you move on. Pretty good metaphor for the underlying pointlessness of consumer capitalism. Respect to the Radiant Pillar.

Next Expedition?? [Question]

Hello everyone, does anyone have an idea when the next expedition will start? I thought they usually started soon after if not right as an update dropped... I know the new update is kind of being treated as a smaller one, but still. I don't follow the game to, to much so im wondering if there is something I just may not know. Thank you so much for any answers!

First dreadnought, B-class, should I claim it? [Question]

Just captured my first pirate dreadnought, a B-class. I had randomly watched a video on this fight a while back, so I knew what to do. I tried reloading my save point and re-doing this battle, but I got the exact same dreadnought (same name and class) three times, so I guess this first one isn't randomized?

But I actually like my C-class medium-sized Venator freighter better, and I've unlocked a lot of inventory slots in it. Is there any advantage dreadnoughts have over system freighters that would make it worth claiming?

Derilects could really use some love. [Discussion]

like 100 hours into my save and just did my first one finally buying a beacon from a scrap dealer for 8.3 mil

And honestly the idea is cool af but man it seems... redundant.

Like I can find corvette parts literally everywhere, bulkhead expansions arent too rare and even then storage rooms and the matter beam exist and if I want Tech upgrades I can just blow up civillian freighters for guarenteed s upgrades in like 40s tops.

And the tainted scrap shop is so weak, did outlaws come out after this content and just make it fully redundant?

I hate permanent online features. [Suggestion]

(Flame post, sorry it's probably been done a lot before, but fml I hate this, so this is for everyone who just wants to chill and explore solo)

TLDR; Thought I was offline, came back to play today to 15 other player bases around mine and now, from 3 deposits, to no Emeril beside me. Thanks. I hate it.

After starting again, last save was 2022, I forgot how much I hated the online features of this game. I play with network features off, and I play the game solo, mainly because I'm on PS4 and my wee old babe hates the nexus online, stutter city, but also because it breaks immersion for me. And ngl, I don't want people building things or taking rare resources. I don't play MMO's, tried them. Nope. But, I adore NMS, and have seen so many people online saying, "I've played since the beggining and NEVER met anyone else".... Absolute liars.

I found a portal for the first time playing, and I've been playing a while before my long break, I made a terrible mistake. I named my base with portal in it and uploaded.... Forgetting that upload isn't just to the in game thing, it's uploading to the actual game servers. Ofc, when I come back, 15, I repeat. 15 bases, at least, pop up like some blight, and all of a sudden, no emeril to be found.

Now, while I was playing last, there was an update that was downloading and put everything offline when I discovered the portal and destination it took me to. So maybe the bases where there all along and I was the new comer. Either way I wish there was an option to turn off other players. Just have a genuine solo experience without having to start again, again, and disconect my PS4 from online. Sorry gang. I don't want to share.

To kick it even further, since turning my network off, the bases are still there. So you can't toggle it off. Why this isn't an option after 10 years of dev, I have no clue.

This was absolutely a rant. Probably...

How does egg sequencing work following the Xeno Arena update? [Question]

I’ve done egg sequencing a handful of times prior to the update. I have some notion of how it works, using materials to alter the new creature’s size, appearance, colors, etc. Has the functionality of it changed now that we have the new update? From what I’ve heard you really can’t improve the trait potentials of offspring through sequencing but I’ve also seen that the size of a creature affects its maximum health. Do the rest of the sequencing options have any bearing on stats, abilities, etc? Or is everything other than size still purely cosmetic?

Decided to start an empire. I present to you Sugilite. The capital base of the empire of Lvndr. (Coordinates on screenshot) [Screenshot]

Lvndr is the home world of the “empire” (meaning I’m making bases in other worlds with the same aesthetic and/or shout out to the home world). Sugilite is the first base I did. Originally made as a labor of love for my bf cause his favorite color is purple, but now I wish to expand.

If anyone wants to become citizens of Lvndr, it’s as easy as traveling to the home world and setting up shop wherever you like. I just ask that no one tries to mess with Sugilite as it’s both the capital, and the base I made for my bf and it would be quite the bummer to see it messed up. (I toggled the no edit option but just in case).

If any of you wish to become ambassadors of Lvndr, feel free to do so. All I ask is that A) the bases you make in the name of the Lvndr Empire are mostly purple. B) that you add a wonder projector projecting the Lvndr home world so all people can find their way back to the home world. And C) that you spread love and positivity and kindness through the galaxies. Help players, have fun together and above all, be kind to everyone you meet.

Also, if you do decide to become an ambassador of the Lvndr empire, please tag me if you share a pic of your bases here on Reddit.

The main color scheme I’m using is purple and lilac for base colors, but feel free to use other colors as long as most of the bass is in some shade of purple.

Thanks for reading :)

Loving the game. [Discussion]

Im loving the game, the exploration is great, but how do I meet other players? I go to the anomaly where everyone is, but everyone is silent. Is there a setting i need to enable to hear everyone, or is it just common practice to remain mute and communicate through the gestures tab? I read so many stories of ppl going on these space adventures together and building communities, but so far its been lonley in space.

Best Starship Weapons & Upgrades in No Man’s Sky? What Should I Use? [Ship Builds]

Hey everyone,

I’ve been getting more into space combat lately and wanted to ask: what are the best weapons to install on a starship in No Man’s Sky right now?

I recently unlocked the Cyclotron Ballista and the Infra-Knife Accelerator, along with the more basic stuff. I’m flying a Sentinel ship, and currently I’ve got the Sentinel Cannon, Phase Beam, and Rocket Launcher equipped.

I’m curious what people think is actually worth using long-term. What weapons deal the most damage? Which ones feel the most effective in real fights? And what about upgrades, modules, or tech setups — how do you build a ship that’s actually strong in combat instead of just something that flies around?

Basically:

  • What’s the best weapon loadout?

  • Which upgrades should I prioritize?

  • How do you optimize a ship for real damage output?

Would love to hear what setups you all are running.

Help, I’m trapped!! [Bug]

When I played a few days ago I got my first settlement. I focused for hours on upgrading it as much as I could, then I saved, quit, and left for a few days. I just loaded back in AND IM TRAPPED IN A BUILDING I ALREADY UPGRADED!! The door is blocked like it’s still upgrading though. What is really confusing me is I saved my game outside of the building, so I have no idea why it loaded me back inside of it. I have no clue what to do. NPCs just faze through the front door like it’s not even there, but I can’t. Am I cooked? Please help me.

Edit: one NPC fazed through the door and now it can’t get out either!

The Sorry State of No Man’s Sky [Discussion]

I’ve been playing since day one. I stuck through the launch disaster, the crashes, the empty planets. I defended Hello Games when everyone called it a scam. But after the latest “Pokémon update” (or whatever they’re calling this half-baked creature collecting nonsense), I’m done pretending.

What the hell happened? We went from exploring the vast unknown to catching space Pikachu on every procedurally generated rock. The new creatures are just reskinned versions of the same 12 models with different colors and “cute” animations. Who asked for this? I wanted deep lore, massive space battles, and meaningful progression — not a kid’s Pokémon Go rip-off in my hardcore survival game.

And don’t even get me started on the expeditions. Every single one is the same monotonous garbage: fly here, scan that, collect 47 identical resources while the game holds your hand with giant glowing markers. It’s the same recycled content with a new coat of paint and some lame title at the end. Where’s the innovation? Where’s the challenge? It feels like they ran out of ideas years ago.

At this point, it’s obvious we’re all just unpaid beta testers for Light No Fire. Every “major update” is really just them stress-testing mechanics they’ll use in their next big thing while throwing us scraps. “Here’s some new pets and a slightly better terrain algorithm, enjoy!” Meanwhile the core game still feels hollow.

Honestly, it’s a perfect metaphor for my life lately. I log in every day hoping for something new and exciting, only to get the same repetitive loop with minimal rewards. Kind of like being a beta male in my own marriage — always there, always grinding, always “supportive,” while my wife’s boyfriend gets the real adventure and the exciting updates.

Anyway, if you still enjoy mindlessly catching space critters and doing the same...

New Multitool...? [Discussion]

Hello. I’m about 300 hours in. I finally decided to finish going through the main story. Until till now I’ve been happy playing the game with an A class multitool that’s worked just fine for me. While doing the autophage mission, I finally took the plunge and upgraded to a sentinel multitool. And it certainly didn’t help my FOMO, because I confess I wish I had that hijack laser long ago!

My issue is this… right after upgrading to the sentinel tool, I suddenly find myself in possession of the autophage staff and a voltic multitool. I have no idea what either one of these things do differently or better than other tools. Does anyone have any recommendations on multitool choice?

Alone Amidst the Stars mission bug [Bug]

So I placed the first signal booster, and when I go to the next marker nothing happens. I’ll place down a signal booster and no option to triangulate. All it does is point to another location off planet and sometimes it’s just in the middle of nowhere. Won’t let me restart the mission.
